I am trying to install RDCOMCLient and it appears to be out of date:

Output 1: `install.packages("RDCOMClient") WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently installed. Please download and install the appropriate version of Rtools before proceeding:

Brandon, have you installed Rtools? That's a separate install, more info here: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/

Once you have that, try again - if that doesn't work there's a couple more options to try.

@Nova-Scotia can you please share other options? I am facing same error for R version 4.3

@jimitnaik I actually recently gave up on RDCOMClient. I was having so many issues with installs and I was getting inconsistent behaviour with attaching images, tables, html files etc.

I ended up going with the blastula package, I find the syntax easier and I've had fewer issues.
