[R] ANCOVA with defined error terms

[hpdutra]

Thank you Richard, this works. But, the model you suggested me lacks some
between subjects  interactions, namely:
 veget:time:block
 fruit:time:block. 
 According to Sokal and Rohlf I need to report those as well. 
Also, any ideas why the sum of squares on my model are different from yours

summary(mymodel<-(aov(mice~veget*fruit*time+(time*block)+(time*block*veget)+(time*block*fruit)+coon+Error(block/plot,
data = track))))
reports veg:fruit with a sum squares of 80.5

while yours 
summary <- (ricsmodel<-aov(mice ~ coon + block*veget*fruit*time -
block:veget:fruit:time+ Error(block/plot), data = track))
gives me a veget:fruit sum of squares of 253.2
the residuals degrees of freedom also differ my model gives 4 DF for the
between subjects while yourr does not report one for the between subjects. 
I know I'm asking too much, but I'm just trying to understand.
Thanks
