Hi David,

Thanks for your advice.  I got it.

But I can't resolve:

> library(AER)
Loading required package: car
Loading required package: MASS
Loading required package: nnet
Loading required package: survival
Loading required package: splines
Loading required package: Formula
Loading required package: lmtest
Loading required package: zoo
Loading required package: sandwich
Loading required package: strucchange

> data()
displays "Data sets in package ‘AER’:"

But;
> library(Ecdat)
> data()
displays "Data sets in package ‘datasets’:
a large datasets including those in package "Ecdat"?  NOt only Ecdat separately.

B.R.
Stephen L

Because loading the package does not necessarily register the datasets:

> require(Ecdat)
Loading required package: Ecdat
> data()  #------> produces a large list including
Car                              Stated Preferences for Car Choice
Caschool                         The California Test Score Data Set
Catsup                           Choice of Brand for Catsup
Cigar                            Cigarette Consumption
> str(Caschool)
Error in str(Caschool) : object 'Caschool' not found

> data(Car)
> str(Car)
'data.frame':    4654 obs. of  70 variables:
  $ choice    : Factor w/ 6 levels "choice1","choice2",..: 1 2 5 5 5 5  
2 5 5 2 ...
  $ college   : num  0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 ...
  $ hsg2      : num  0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 ...

Note that this dataset was NEVER  spelled "car".
