To _ALL_ who helped me.
In the final analysis, I was doing everything correctly, as per the manuals, the links, and the books I bought. However, in all the material, it never read mention of creating of the .Rprofile file with a programmer/developer text editor, which allows for no extension, no R, no txt.

You guys drilled down, and hit solid gold for me,
which lead to my understanding the issue, at least as I see it.

Pure GOLD Medal team work.
Again, I truly thank you.
Bruce

To all who helped, thanks.
My quest was minor, but major for me, as I learn from the path of one, whether big or small begets another.

I never look down at anyone, except to help him/her up.

With gratitude,

According to the gospel of St.Henrik, that filename is wrong, and possibly the directory too.

So try his suggestions. What is the output (show us!) of

normalizePath("./.Rprofile")
normalizePath("~/.Rprofile")

Assuming that the former is

"C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile"

you could try renaming the .Rprofile.site file to that. If need be, use file.rename, as in

file.rename(from="C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile.site", to="C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile")

(and restart, obviously).

[I wouldn't set the seed in a .Rprofile file, nor would I use rm() there, but that is a different kettle of fish.]
