[R] What does "package 'RDCOMClient' is not installed for 'arch=x64' " exactly mean?
Hi, I'm trying to use the excel.link package to write data to excel spreadsheets. I've installed the RDCOMClient package as required but get the error: package 'RDCOMClient' is not installed for 'arch=x64' I'm on Rx64 2.13.0. I assume it means the RDCOMClient package does not work on the x64 version. I've tried to see if there does a x64 RDCOMClient package version exist but to no available. Any suggestions?

It 'exactly means' what it says. We have no idea who installed it from the sources, and you need to take that up with them (or yourself, if it were you). Please do follow the posting guide and give the 'at a minimum' information required. (Your R is seriously obsolete, and you were asked to update before posting.) RDCOMClient is from Omegahat: if you installed it from there, please take this up with the Omegahat maintainer.

Any suggestions?It so far as I can guess at their meaning, your assertions are not true. One is available on CRAN extras, a default repository for your version of R for Windows. You can also easily install from the sources for yourself.> > Cheers > D-- Brian D.
