Hi,
I have a problem with an invalid variable type.

My sample dataset is looking like this:
 > str(factivaTDM.train)
'data.frame':   4 obs. of  14 variables:
  $ access            : num  2 3 2 1
  $ billion           : num  2 1 2 2
  $ compani           : num  7 6 1 2
  $ data              : num  6 2 3 4
  $ inc               : num  5 3 3 2
  $ local             : num  3 2 1 1
  $ mcleodusa         : num  15 6 2 10
  $ network           : num  9 1 2 1
  $ provid            : num  4 3 1 2
  $ servic            : num  11 4 3 6
  $ share             : num  9 5 3 5
  $ splitrock         : num  18 6 4 5
  $ stock             : num  3 3 1 2
  $ classifiedPositive:List of 4
   ..$ : chr "yes"
   ..$ : chr "yes"
   ..$ : chr "yes"
   ..$ : chr "yes"
   ..- attr(*, "class")= chr "AsIs"

and the command:
NaiveBayes.model <- NB(classifiedPositive ~ ., data = factivaTDM.train)
generates the error:
invalid type (list) for variable 'classifiedPositive'

Here is another dataset which causes no errors:
 > str(weatherNominal.train)
'data.frame':   13 obs. of  5 variables:
  $ outlook    : Factor w/ 3 levels "overcast","rainy",..: 3 3 1 2 2 2 1 
3 3 2 ...
  $ temperature: Factor w/ 3 levels "cool","hot","mild": 2 2 2 3 1 1 1 3 
1 3 ...
  $ humidity   : Factor w/ 2 levels "high","normal": 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 1 2 2 ...
  $ windy      : logi  FALSE TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE ...
  $ play       : Factor w/ 3 levels "?","no","yes": 2 2 3 3 3 2 3 2 3 3 ...

So I suppose, I have to convert classifiedPositive:List to 
classifiedPositive:Factor
How can I do that?

I will send you more information about my script if you need it.

Thank you very much,
Michael
