Hi Mark,
Thank you for your reply. There is one link I haven't come across, the last
one. I have seen them but I couldn't find where 'how to start R' is
explained for Windows platforms.
I will look further into them.
As for everyone else who sent e-mails, thank you. I have printed them out
and will look into them.
