Mike, thanks for your answer, I'm currently doing the same thing...
If you want, I can send you my sources when I'll have make some code to
fix it.

Hi Julien,
Thank you... I'm glad to hear people like it...
Actually I somewhat cheated in that regard... The installation program
is automatically created by Visual Studio Express. The reason I want
to migrate to a real version of Visual Studio is that then I can
control the installation and check for those things... so at this
point I'm not sure I can answer your question on the install.
When R.Net opens, it first attempts to create a connection to R using
the DCOM server, if that process fails, it assumes that either you
don't have R or don't have the DCOM and it gives a warning that you
have to install one before it closes.

Hi Mike,
I've tried your .NET R GUI, it's very nice !
I'll be really interested to take a look on it if you make it an open
source project.
How did you check the produces installed on the computer before
installation ?
By searching exe files, looking in system registry, or another way ?
(I need to build an installation package for the software I'm
currently working on, and I don't know how to verify the installation
of needed softwares like R or R(D)Com Server)
Regards,
Julien Vanwinsberghe

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to send a quick note out to say that I've been working
on a GUI for R built on the .NET framework... at this point I've
called it R.Net. I ultimately plan to release it as an open source
project if anybody seems vaguely interested in it... It's based on
the Rcmdr package by John Fox. The difference is that I eventually
want to make it a standalone install so that users can just download
a single .msi file or something with everything they need and not
have to know a thing about R going in to it. The program is currently
available on my web site here...

Of course, it requires R and the DCOM server and.since it's written
in .NET it requires windows and the .NET 2.0 framework - if you don't
have this it will automatically install it from microsoft.
I am a political science graduate student and so my effort so far has
been to make the interface behave (at least somewhat) like Stata and
other common packages used in the social sciences. My hope is to make
R more accessible to people who are hesitant about diving into a
command line environment.
I should warn that a few of the features do not work right now- most
notably the ability to type in a dataset manually. Because I'm busy
with school, I've just been building in features that I've needed for
different projects... With that said, I think it does have one or two
handy features to the interface... Also, for simplicity I've written
it in the free version of visual studio... down the road I'm hoping
to switch it over to and write an actual installer that could include
R and DCOM so that it isn't as confusing to install.
I'd certainly appreciate any feedback or thoughts anyone has some...
Thank you,
Mike Ryckman
