Hi all!
I'm trying to install RPy in WinXP. This are my programs' versions:
RPy-0.3.1
R 1.8.0
Python 2.3

After tweaking a bit RPy's setup.py (just added RHOME = "c:/Program 
Files/R/rw1080")
I got this strange error message (what does Visual Studio has to do with 
it?!)

E:\to_do\rpy-0.3.1>python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
creating build
creating build\lib.win32-2.3
copying rpy.py -> build\lib.win32-2.3
copying io.py -> build\lib.win32-2.3
copying rpy_version.py -> build\lib.win32-2.3
running build_ext
error: Python was built with version 6 of Visual Studio, and extensions 
need to be built
with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed.

Thanks for your help!
