Start a new kernel, then evaluates the following expressions: In[1]:= $Version Out[1]= 5.2 for Microsoft Windows (June 20, 2005) In[2]:= Remove[SphericalPlot3D]; (* Just in case you have some conflicting definition automatically loaded during the initialization *) Needs["Graphics`ParametricPlot3D`"]; SphericalPlot3D[2, {theta, 0, Pi}, {phi, -Pi, Pi}]; [...graphic of a colored sphere deleted...] Regards, Jean-Marc
