    <p>To clarify @DWin's and Gabor's answers slightly more:</p> <p>You are running into trouble because R-forge only builds binaries for the current (2.14 right now) and development ("2.15", but Brian Ripley will probably get mad if you refer to it that way) versions of packages. In this situation you have the following options:</p> <ul> <li>Upgrade R to the current version (the best idea).</li> </ul> <p>If you have good reasons you can't do that (you don't have administrative rights, you are running a critical analysis that depends on a previous version of R, you need to use Revolution R because of its extensions etc.), then you can try one of the following:</p> <ul> <li>(as suggested by @jthetzel's comment above) follow the links to the <a href="https://r-forge.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/latest/zoo_1.7-7.zip" rel="nofollow">binary version of the package</a>, download the binary file (zip in the case of Windows), and try installing from the local copy (with <code>repos=NULL</code>, or from the appropriate menu entry). This will not work if the package depends, implicitly or explicitly, on features in the latest version of R.</li> <li>try to install the source version of the package: <code>install.packages("thispkg",repos="http://r-forge.r-project.org",type="source")</code>. This will only work if (1) you have the tools for compiling packages from source installed (see the R manual, or (for Windows) the R for Windows FAQ, google for "Rtools", etc., or (for MacOS) the R for MacOS FAQ) <strong>or</strong> (2) the package contains only R code, not compiled C/FORTRAN code (not true in the case of the <code>zoo</code> package, I think).</li> <li>download the <a href="https://r-forge.r-project.org/src/contrib/zoo_1.7-7.tar.gz" rel="nofollow">source package</a>, unpack it, modify the <code>DESCRIPTION</code> file so that the maintainer e-mail is your own, rebuild the source package, and upload it to the CRAN <a href="http://win-builder.r-project.org/" rel="nofollow">win-builder</a> service. (If you don't modify the <code>DESCRIPTION</code> file then you won't be informed that the package has been built and where to download it -- you'll just annoy and confuse the maintainer of the package, who will receive the e-mail.) (This only works for Windows.)</li> </ul> <p>Some of the resistance you've been getting is directed less at you than at Revolution R. There's nothing wrong (I don't think) with their making money from R, but when providing support for Revolution R adds to the workload of the R community (ordinarily we would just say "upgrade to the latest version of R" and be done with it), people get a little grumpy.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
