Your df object (newdata) has to have ALL the variables in it. Normally you wouldn't need
the strata variable, but in this case cov1 is also a covariate. Look at the example I
gave earlier.

Many thanks for your very quick reply! I tried replacing ?~ strata(cov1) +
cov1:cov2 ? with ?~ strata(cov1):cov2 ?. As a result, I get an error
message saying that ?object 'cov1' not found?. I guess R refers to the data
frame. Any idea how to fix the error? Complete code follows.
