[R] Reading CSV file every time when R starts

[Greg Snow]

The .Rprofile file is processed before all the standard packages are
loaded, that is why you are seeing the error.  If you instead run the
command as utils::read.csv or use library or require to manually load
the utils package before calling read.csv then everything should work
for you.
