[R] fastbw question
Hello I am running R 2.0.1 on Windows, I am attempting to use Frank Harrell's 'fastbw' function (from the Design library), but I get an error that the fit was not created with a Design library fitting function; yet when I go to the help for fastbw (and also look in Frank's book Regression Modeling Strategies) it appears that fastbw should work with a model created with lm. Relevant code model.borrow.logols- lm(logborrow~age + sex + racgp + yrseduc + needlchg + gallery + totni + inject + poly(year.of.int,3) + druginj + inj.years + HTLV3) fastbw(model.borrow.logols) Thanks in advance Peter Peter L.

Try ols. -Frank Thanks in advance Peter Peter L.
