That is not valid R.

You fit a model without the term if you want to predict from a different model. > I have not found answer in the archives of R-help. > I thank you for your time and your help in regards to this problem, I am sorry, but you will need to be *accurate* in what you write, as you have made too many errors for me (at least) to guess what you mean. This sort of thing is covered in all good texts on R, of which there are several in the FAQ. -- Brian D.
