Dear R users,
I've found bugs.R : the functions for running WinBUGs from R that is
writen by Dr. Andrew Gelman who is a professor from Columbia University.
The bugs.R would be very useful for me, and I think many of you know it
as well. I followed the instuctions on Dr. Gelman's web to install all
of documents that bugs.R needs, but when I try to run the school example
the web posted in R, I got an error. Would you please help me out? I am stuck on this for a while and really
frustrated now.
The program and the error as follow.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Why do you post twice? See my former message, you forgot to source() "bugs.R".

BTW: Since this code is from the website from Andrew Gelman, why do you think posting to R-help is the appropriate way to get help? R has a standardized mechanism for distributing code - called "package".
And the appropriate package "R2WinBUGS" you are looking for has been made available - thanks to Andrew's effort in writing the original code and thanks to the efforts of two others to generalize the code and package it for you.
