What's this? This isn't valid R code. If it is `Elaine Kuo model
notation` how on earth do you expect the readers of this list to be
certain what you mean? This is why we ask for reproducible R code!

So, are you asking why weren't the variables included in the model when
cor(X,Y) include those variables? How would we know, you haven't shown
us the code you used to fit the model.
If X is a data.frame of predictors variables and Y the response vector,
then
lm(Y ~ ., data = X)
will include all variables from X to model response Y.
If you send a reproducible example or full code plus output of str(OBJ)
where OBJ are your data objects, then I'll try to help further.

Err, yes. If you are getting such inconsistencies then you need to solve
the issue as it likely points to you doing something wrong in the way
you are using R.
BUT! Give us something concrete to work with. I won't reply if you don't
read and follow the posting guide; life is too short to spend it
guessing how you went wrong.
