Thanks. I will replicate the error and post an example.

I don't fully understand your next question, many of the modeling functions have options for saving the data (see ?lm), but can you give an example for your A, B, and C example? Then we will have a better chance of telling you what is happening and what options can change what is happening. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
