I know it is pretty old but it seems that nobody answer this question. I
ran into similar problem and the work around I found use the assign
function. Indeed it seems than stepAIC look for the element it needs
within the global environment. So if you define an object inside a
function, you need afterwards to assign this object to the global
environment.
See ?assign
Maybe that can help some people.
