Error when using library(dplyr)

[hellen6570]

Hi all,

I get some error message when I try to open dplyr
I tried to reinstall the package (dplyr and tidyselect) but still get the same error as follow:

> library("dplyr")
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘dplyr’:
 .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'tidyselect', details:
  call: is_string(x)
  error: object 'rlang_is_string' not found

any suggestion to solve this will be appreciated! Thanks!

And it works fine now!
