names(mydata)
[1] "ILFTable" "liabLimit" "AnnAggLimit" "DedAmt" "Loss"
"TIL"
fit=vglm(Loss~1,pareto1(location=alpha),trace=TRUE,crit="c")
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object "Loss" not found
Without looking at the vglm documentation, my first guess is that this
might have succeeded had you included a, data=mydata, argument. That
is pretty much standard practice in R regression functions. "Loss" is
not an R object but rather a column name inside mydata.
