Hello,

I am trying to use the following to output a table to latex:

cohortbyagesummary <- by(data.frame(age,ethnicity), cohort, summary)
w <- latex.default(cohortbyagesummary, caption="Five Number Age Summaries by Cohort",
   label="agesummarybycohort",    cgroup=c('hello','goodbye','hello'),
   colheads=c("Age","Ethnicity"),
   extracolheads=c('hello','goodbye'),    greek=TRUE,
   ctable=TRUE)
   I am not able to get the major column headings of cgroup to work. I
receive the error:
   Object cline not found


See if a modified version at
http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/Hmisc/R/latex.s
fixes your problem.




Dr. Harrell,

Thanks for your help. I have downloaded latex.s, but am unable to figure
out where it should go. How do I ensure that it is called when I load
Hmisc? Do I patch it against R/Hmisc?

I have a local directory structure in ~/Library/R/library/Hmisc/:

-rw-r--r--  1 user  user  594 12 May 19:20 CITATION
-rw-r--r--  1 user  user  989 12 May 19:20 DESCRIPTION
drwxr-xr-x  3 user  user  102 12 May 19:20 Meta/package.rds
drwxr-xr-x  3 user  user  102 12 May 19:20 R/Hmisc
drwxr-xr-x  3 user  user  102 12 May 19:20 libs/Hmisc.so

Thanks for your patience.




Your directory structure is from an installed binary package. You need to replace the file in the *source* package and *install* the source package after that.

A better approach is just to source( ) in the new version after library(Hmisc) is issued. You can put latex.s anywhere, just put that path in the source( ). A new version of Hmisc will include the fix.

Please note that this does now work generally if a NAMESPACE is involved (which seems not to be the case here).
