Hi. Yes, I have loaded the library and installed.packages() shows it as installed but the problem exists nonetheless!

But then, check if its a recent version (I don't know when this function was added). biocLite always matches R versions with bioconductor versions. Maybe you have an old R.

R is version 2.9.2 so pretty old I guess? I can just imagine the fun I'm going to have getting the IS guys to update this on our server.

@Travis: You can always install your own version of R.

How is that? I don't have sufficient privileges on the server & even my desktop lacks a number of dependencies which I can't currently correct because of our internal setup. The joys of industry.

@Travis: You can compile it into your home directory. I typically create an sw directory that I use as a prefix for custom installs, as you grow your "home library", you'll get the ~/sw/etc ~/sw/bin, etc. in there, and you juust add ~/sw/bin to your PATH. For instance, to install R locally, just d/l the latest sources and simply do a configure --prefix=/home/YOU/sw; make; make install (more or less)

As I mentioned above, it might indeed be my R version. I definitely have run the library("GenomicFeatures") command though :)

If you're sure that the library has loaded, try typing "GenomicFeatures" then hitting the tab key a couple of times; that should display the available functions.

I can type "Ge" and tab will automatically complete "GenomicFeatures::" for me but after that it does nothing - no functions appear!
