Hi Robert:

Thanks for your response, as well.

I'm sorry. As you've discovered, I made some capitalization errors when posting my R code. The actual R code does use "lme", "data", and "random".

The dataframe is indeed named "emiss" and each item in the formula is a column in the dataframe. I used the following R code to read in the comma-delimited file (first line contains headings):

emiss <- read.table("data.csv", header=TRUE, sep=",") # NA for missing data (default)

A review of the dataframe "emiss" shows that all items, except "STUDY", "VEHICLE" and "NEW", are of type "num". The items "STUDY", "VEHICLE", and "NEW" are of type "factor".

I will work on creating some "fake data". However, since I don't have SAS v6.12 anymore, I can't provide the so-called "correct results".

As for the R hang, your wording is correct: "R gets caught in a processing loop that produces no errors or warnings", even after 15 minutes on an 8-core Mac Pro. As I recall, the SAS code produced an answer in 15 seconds or less on a single core Mac II back in 1999.

Thanks again!

--Dennis

I don't have real help, but I'll remind you that R is case sensitive, and it looks like that will be at least one problem in the solution your are working on below:
lme not LME
data not DATA
random = RANDOM
------------------------------------------------------------------

The R code I've devised for the PROC MIXED statement is shown below:

------------------------------------------------------------------
FitTHC <- LME(ln_thc ~ rv + t5 + t9 + ar + ol + ox + su + bz,
          DATA = emiss,
          RANDOM = ??????? )
------------------------------------------------------------------

As indicated, the problem I'm having is in constructing the equivalent code for the RANDOM and any remaining settings. I've tried

RANDOM = ~1 + rv + t5 + t9 + ar + ol + ox + su + bz | new)

but R hangs
Are the items in your random formula columns in a dataframe named emiss? Do they have data types? Even if the data are proprietary some fake data can make the problem more concrete. You are saying "gets caught in a processing loop that produces no errors or warnings"???

and never produces a result. Therefore, what is the equivalent code for the SAS RANDOM?

Thanks!
