Hi Bill,
Thanks for you comments. You may be right in that my ability to use the
software may be the problem. I was using lm to fit a model with 'target'
values of 0 or 1. I then discovered there was a lrm model as well, so just
replaced lm with lrm and expected it to be fine. Then I found that t

Be sure that you mean what you say, that you are saying what you mean, and
that you know what you mean when making such statements, especially on this
list. glm is not in
glm is not, and never was. part of the MASS package. It's in the stats package.
Have you sorted out why there is a "big difference" between the results you get
using glm and lrm?
Are you confident it is due to the algorithms used and not your ability to use
the software?
