Hello,
I had a problem seeing the help pages with R 2.14.(0 or 1? I don't
remember) on Windows 7.
Then I realized that after a command like print, Rgui would first
display an error message saying that the temp directory used by help
didn't exist. The solution I've found was to manually create it whenever
this happened. And to issue a print statement after a missed ?function
one. Apparently the error message was waiting to be displayed somewhere.
The problem was corrected with R 2.15.0 so I recommened you update your
installation of R.
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas

Dear R-help community,
I am unable to access help files when using the typical
"?function.of.interest" command.
For example, if I type "?anova", Internet Explorer opens, but I am never
connected to the usual page describing the nuances of the anova function.
This is a new problem (just started occurring a few days ago). I am
currently using R 2.14.1 on a Windows XP machine. As suggested by someone
else on another list serve I have placed the session info below for a brief
session where this occurred. NOTE: I am not trying to access any functions
for libraries that are not active (for example, anova is in the default
Stats package).
Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue or any insights on why this
may be occurring are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
