Package 'Hmisc' installed, but error when trying 'library' to activate?

[hanne]

Hi!
I installed the package Hmisc, but get an error when I try to activate it with 'library'. Is there anyone who knows what could go wrong?
Thanks!

install.packages("Hmisc")

There is a binary version available but the source version is later:

Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation?

Installation is not successful because you are missing this dependency, the problem is that latticeExtra is not available for your R version which is very old. You need to update your R version in order to been able to install this package.
