Phil,
   The version of RMySQL you forwarded me installed, though I got the
following message:

> library(RMySQL)
Warning message:
package 'RMySQL' was built under R version c(2, 4, 0) and help will not work
correctly
Please re-install it

That being said, I am getting farther along than I did with the version I
installed from the server via install.packages("RMySQL"), so perhaps I'll be
alright with the older version.

Best,
Jonathan

Jonathon -
  When my students have had this problem, I've pointed them to
an earlier version of the package, which seems to work:

  http://www.stat.berkeley.edu/classes/s133/RMySQL_0.5-11.zip

Download the file, and choose Packages -> Install Packages from Local Zip
File.

  Hope this helps.
