  • Thank you, I missed that aspect of source(). However, if I change that line of code to source(paste0("C:/Users/JT/R/Functions/", func, ".R"), local = environment) I get the error Error in source(paste0("C:/Users/JT/R/Functions/", func, ".R"), local = environment) : 'local' must be TRUE, FALSE or an environment. Is there a way to convert the "env" that comes from environment to env? Commented Mar 30, 2019 at 2:11
  • You should create an environment to save into. For example as I demonstrated with env = new.env(). Then pass the environment as your argument. If you need to name the new environement using a character string (environemt in your example - although it is bad practice to use reserved words as names), you can use assign(environment, new.env()) Commented Mar 30, 2019 at 2:34
