Sorry, Greg, It is reporting the same problem. What I did was: 1. I completely removed R 2.8.0 2. I completely removed R/Scilab (D)Com Server 2.50 and RExcel 1.75 3. I installed R 2.7.2 (it was fine) 4. I installed R/Scilab (D)Com Server 2.50 and RExcel 1.75 Unfortunately upon completion of task 4, I experienced exactly the same error (stopping execution of the VBA program with the LEFT function being the problem). Shall I go back to even older version of R? Which one?

I had the same problem and found that R-2.8.0 no longer installs an rproxy.dll file which is what RDCom is programmed to look for. There is no workaround right now except dropping back to R-2.7.2 which is what I've done. The VBA error message is due to Application.Version sending an illegal value to the left function. -Greg -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hanák Gábor Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 7:08 AM To: rcom-l@mailman.csd.univie.ac.at Subject: [Rcom-l] Problem installing RSrv250.exe Can anybody help me with the following installation probelm? I use Windows XP Professional Version 5.1 (SP3) I use Microsoft Office Excel 2003 SP3 I successfully installed R 2.8.0 When I wanted to install RSrv250 it went smothly for a while and after I got a message saying "Completing the R/Scilab (D)Com Server and RExcel Setup Wizard", I pushed the "Finish" button. Then the program started Microsoft Visual Basic and in the file RExcel.xla, in the project RExcelVBAlib, in the module MenuTools, in the function ExcelVersionMajor() a compile error was reported saying: "Can't find project or library" and the in the statement " ExcelVersionMajor = CInt(Left(Application.Version, pos - 1))" the function "Left" was highlighted. I do not understand why the Left function was not found, if I go to the Object Browser then I can find Left as "Function Left(String, Length As Long)". As a result, after stopping the execution of the Visual Basic program and starting Excel, the same error message is generated. Then I can only use Excel properly if I uncheck RExcel in the Add-ins dialog. If I check RExcel, the same thing happens. Thus it seems I can not use RExcel at all.
