Simon: there's a standard interface here: you call na.action and it decides what to do. Basically you need to set up a model frame as e.g. lm does, and then pass that as `data' to gam.setup. It would eliminate some other inconsistencies (e.g. not using environment(formula)) too. I hope that's clear enough, but please feel to talk to me privately. Brian -- Brian D.
