Dear Anna, What is your goal in obtaining a value for R^2 ? I believe it is not provided for a non-linear model, because it does not make much sense. It certainly will not have the same interpretation as in a linear model, and all the ways it *could* be "defined" come with their own sets of problems. A more precise definition of what you want (say you have a particular formula but do not know how to get the necessary information out of the model) may get a better answer.
