[Rsiena-help] non-numeric data?

[Maarten Selfhout]

Dear Ruth,

I get a very strange error on  top of the prior mentioned ones: When I  
try to specify my covariates and behaviors, it tells me I have  
nonnumeric data:

However, the filers only have numeric data, which can be 0, 1, 2, 3 or  
99 for missing (which I recoded into NA above).

I get the exact same error in  the GUI. Is there something I need to  
add to specify the files correctly?

Kind regards,

Maarten
