[Rsiena-help] siena08 - combine projects

[Ruth M. Ripley]

Dear Philippe,

Not sure what the problem is but if you would like to send me your data 
(saved workspace plus history preferably, but any format with the code 
will be OK) I will have a look.

Also please tell me what version of RSiena you are using, and what 
computer.

Regards,

Ruth
