Hallo Uwe,

family_seq is the object I defined when I read my SPSS data:

family_seq <- read.spss (file="C:\\Documents\\blabla\\fam_seq.sav", 
use.value.labels=TRUE) 

I have the impression (which does'nt help) that something doesn't go right
with importing the data. As I said, all my variables (including the ones listed 
in the seqdef command) are listed when I use the names command.

Thanks for any further ideas.
