Hi Jim, I do not use these commands but you might want to put a space between the semi colon in front of the NOCHECK and FILL parameters. This is what the syntax shows. I do not know if that is important or not. A semi colon usually tells R:Base that these are seperate commands on this line and that may be what is generating the error.
