You needt to use the attributes function to display hte names and structures of the "labels" in the two packages. Firts look at help(pack=Hmisc) and help(pack=Epicalc) to see how the package-specific functions are documented. -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
