Dear Steve, Usually the best place to look for information about functions in the car package, along with the help files for the package, is the book with which the package is associated. In this case, there's an on-line appendix to the book on multivariate linear models which describes how to use the linearHypothesis() function in the car package with repeated measures: sec. 3.2 of <http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/Companion/appendix/Appendix-Multivariate-Linear-Models.pdf>. I think that this should help you do what you want.
I hope this helps, John ------------------------------------------------ John Fox Sen.
