Hi Rabby,
It looks to me as though your variable Final$Cor is being treated as a
factor rather than a numeric value. This may be due to one or more
non-numeric values occurring in the data that is read in. Also you do
not have to use the Final$* notation in the formula as you have
specified the data frame "Final".
