Thanks for helping.  Both of them are factors.


That's the problem, they need to be of class Date. See the R NEWS article about Date classes in Volume 4/1.

I don't see how they could be factors though, since you shouldn't be able to subtract two factors from each other without a warning at least?

e.g., when I make up factors f1  and f2

>f1 - f2

<snip>

Warning message:
In Ops.factor(f1, f2) : - not meaningful for factors

We would have to have a small, reproducible example to know for sure what's going on...

Best Regards,
Erik
