Hi Dieter, I never really used groupedData objects at all. I can imagine that if you become even more immersed in nlme and lattice, groupedData could reduce your typing, and sometimes simplify your life, but it was not a hurdle I chose willingly. Hank On Jun 4, 2008, at 1:15 PM, Dieter Menn

HI Toby, I think that the problem is that you have not specified using Rail and travel in the model statement, but rather are still using x1 and x2. It also does not realize that you want x1 to be a factor. Try x1=factor(c(1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,6)) x2=c(55,53,54,26,37,32,78,91,85
