As it is, the only reasonable suggestion is to try and find your lost singleton socks, the missing variablee may be hiding with them. Alternatively the lost variables may have taken off to Never Never Land to hang with the Lost Boys. One simple possibility is that the missing variables were actually never read in to the data frame. Have you ever seen those variables in your data frame? Did you try str(<dataframe>)? As regards "hidden" and "local," you'll - again - have to be a good deal more explicit.
