Thanks everyone, Jorge I used your suggestion and this works perfect.

Dear Douglas,
I'm not quite sure about that, but you could do something like:
1. Save for function in txt format
2. Use source() to load it into R
As a toy example, suppose you have function called "myfunction" which
is defined as:
myfunction=funciton(x,y) x^y
Now, suppose you save "myfunction" in a text file in
"C:/temp/functions", with the same name ("myfunction.txt"). To load
and use "myfunction" in R, you type:
source("C:/temp/functions/myfunction.txt")
myfunction(2,3)
which result, of course, would be 8.
Another option is to save your function in the file
"..\etc\Rprofile.site" as Xiaoxu LI suggested before.
HTH,
Jorge

Hello all,
I am fairly new to R and I have created a function that I use quit
frequently. I was wondering if there is away to save this
function in an existing library so I can call it by using the
function name once the library is loaded?
Thanks,
Doug
