Ruport problems

I have tried the following code with Ruport 1.6.1:
require "rubygems"
require "ruport"


table=Ruport:ata::Table.load( "foo.csv",:has_names=>true)
grouping = Ruport:ata::Grouping(table, :by => "name")
grouping.save_as("foo.pdf")
----------------------------------------------------------------
I get the following errors:

/usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruport-1.6.1/lib/ruport/data/table.rb:695:in
`column': ArgumentError (ArgumentError)
from

from
/usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruport-1.6.1/lib/ruport/data/grouping.rb:386:in
`Grouping'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The csv file is just a copy paste of the example file of the same name used
on Rubyreports.org. It seems to print to the terminal normally but when I
try to group the data I end up getting the above error. Any ideas on what
the problem could be?

Did you make sure that the CSV file has a header? I am able to
reproduce your error if I remove the header from the CSV file. Make
sure your test CSV file looks like this:

me,login time,machine
Gregory,10:00,bittle
Joe,11:45,soda
Jim,9:00,kitten
Joe,12:15,soda
Gregory,5:00,kitten
Joe,12:45,bittle

Hope that helps!
