Hi all,
Thanks for pointing out this bug. As a temporary workaround, you should be able to get
AmeliaView to work properly by installing Amelia with the following command:
install.packages("Amelia", type = "source", repos =
"http://r.iq.harvard.edu")
Then attempt to load AmeliaView in the usual way (either via the desktop link or the R
command line).
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
matt.

I had the same problem and had to run an earlier version of R to get AmeliaView to load.

Subject: [amelia] Installing Amelia II on Windows XP Pro
Hi Matt,
I am getting the same problem as John did. I ran the lines of code you specified below
and got an error with AmeliaView():
Error in structure(.External("dotTclObjv", objv, PACKAGE = "tcltk"),
class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] couldn't open "C:/Program
Files/R/R-2.14.2/library/Amelia/doc/gallery19.gif": no such file or directory.
I checked the filepath and the folder "C:\Program
Files\R\R-2.14.2\library\Amelia\doc" exists but the file isn't there.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you,
Julie Rajaratnam

Hi John,
Can you open R and run the following lines of code:
library(Amelia)
AmeliaView()
This should (a) display what version of Amelia you are using and (b) bring up the
AmeliaView window. If you could let us know what version of Amelia you are using that
would be helpful. Note that you *could* use this method to open AmeliaView all the time
while we try to sort out the problem.
Cheers,
matt.

Dear Amelia:
I am new to Amelia II and am having problems installing it on my PC, which is running
MS-Windows XP Professional.
R was installed, and AmeliaView was installed. But when I click on the AmeliaView icon
on my desktop, all that happenes is a DOS-like window pops open instantaneously & then
immediately disappears.
There must be something wrong with what I am doing, but I cannot see what it is. Note
that I do have the R-2.14.2 subdirectory, which includes Rcmd.exe file, as mentioned in a
previous post.
If you could help troubleshoot this problem so I can begin to use AMeila II, I would be
most grateful.
Many thanks,
John
