Thanks for the solution. But I wish someone would tell us why the solution
makes sense. If you have changed your R environment in any way from the
defaults please let us know.

dear Harrell and R users,
It took me several hours to figure out. I apologize it was my mistake.
Few month ago a modified copy of .Options was created in Rprofile (I
don't remember why). The copy masked the alias .Options created by
options().
Now everything is fixed. Now I know how .Options and options are
related one each other. Sorry for wasting your time.
Thank you for your help.
This is an infelicity in Design and Hmisc (and a few other packages), in
that they do look at the first visible .Options. R itself only looks at
the copy in the symbol table (which also appears in the base namespace).
