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.

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,****

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
