[R] To create a Panel and run a Pooled OLS

[Spencer Graves]

Have you tried the following:

	OLS <- lm(Panel$y~Panel$x1+Panel$x2, data=Panel)

If yes, could you replicate the error with a small data set that you 
send with your help request?  It can make it easier for others to 
diagnose.

Hope this helps. spencer graves
