If that's true, are the permissions on the file messed up then, or
something? Does:

R> file.exists('BeadTypeFile.txt')

return TRUE?

I'm guessing not, in which case something is still wrong with the
directory you are in, and where you think the file is in.

What if you try:

R> targets = read.table("/Users/hajarhassani/Documents/Image
Data/5513091009/BeadTypeFile.txt")
