Many thanks for your advice and assistance.
Sadly, I am unable to install "from source" as my operating environment does
not have Rtools or a compiler.
Is there an old version compiled somewhere I can use ?
Yes, in your 2.15.1 installation. Since you seem to be installing into
a personal library, I expect that if you delete Matrix from
H:/R/win-library/2.15 you will get the originally installed one in .Library.
And if you updated .Library, simply re-install R 2.15.1.
However, the posting guide asked you to update before posting, and that
is the nature of the Open Source contract: help which is available is
only for the current version since that is always freely available. If
you want to use binary packages, we only supply those for current and
future versions of R, and at CRAN's discretion for the final member of
the last series (currently 2.14.2).

Subject: Re: [R] Matrix package will not loead
You will find the problem and solution in the list archives.
The current version of Matrix can be installed *from source* on R (>=
2.15.0), as it claims. But if you install it on R >= 2.15.2 then it
uses features of 2.15.2 and hence can only be run on R >= 2.15.2. And
there was a warning about this ....

Dear Fellow R Users,
I am having a problem with the Matrix package, in Windows XP on R
2.15.1 .
This is the only package where I experience this. I remove the package
first, re install, and then when trying to load, get a LoadLibrary
failure as below.
I've just installed a binary copy of Matrix 1.0-10 in R 2.15.2 patched,
and I get an error too on attaching it: "The procedure entry point
Rf_copyListMatrix could not be located in the dynamic link library
R.dll." I'm pretty sure that procedure is available in R.dll currently,
so I don't know what the real problem is.
The issue is if it is exported from R.dll, which only happened just
before 2.15.2. Works for me with the Matrix binary package on the CRAN
master and both 2.15.2 and the current R-patched (which in any case
contains that version).
I have just rebuilt R, and the same package works fine. So I'd suggest
that you download the latest R-patched from CRAN, and hopefully things
will be fine.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
