Jorge,

This looks like an R on Windows problem,  it is unrelated to VBA.

You have the statement

("source('X:\Trading\Energy\JorgeSpace\TMPholder\cpixe\home
models\toto.R')")

which is invalid R.  You need to use either forward slashes or
double-back-slashes in R commands.
See the R for Windows FAQ 2.16.

Further RCOM questions should be addressed to the rcom list.  You can sign
