The age of this post makes me hope there is an easy response from someone. When I do the following with Orthodont built-in dataset:
library(nlme) OrthoFem<-Orthodont[Orthodont$Sex=="Female",] fm1OrthF.lis<-lmList( distance ~ age,data = OrthoFem) I get the same error: Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "lmList", for signature "formula", "nfnGroupedData" Since this is straight out of Pinheio & Bates book and the same thing happens when I use the example posted with ?lmList, I have no idea what to do. Thank you.
