Dear Billpete002, This looks to me like it's possibly a bug in RcmdrPlugin.epack -- that is, you may have done something wrong, but I'd expect in this case that the timeseries plug=in would intercept the error and return an informative error message. You might want to correspond directly with the author of the plug-in package, Erin Hodgess. I'm copying my response to Erin in case she didn't notice your posting.
