I think you want update.packages(ask = FALSE, checkBuilt = TRUE) to
automatically update all packages and their dependencies. With the default

version number. But packages installed under R x.y.z are not usable in R
x.y+1.w.

Duncan,

  Mea culpa! I knew of the 'ask' option but for some reason the 'checkBuilt'
option did not register when I scanned the list. Yes, using the two is doing
the job. There are many packages from earlier versions now being brought
current.

Many thanks,

Rich
