[R] problem with "dynformula" from "plm" package [RE-POST]

[Owen Powell]

Hello list,

I'm following the paper (http://www.jstatsoft.org/v27/i02/paper) on
how to use "plm" to run panel regressions, and am having trouble with
what I believe should be something very basic.

When I run the command (p.9 in the paper):

R>
dynformula(emp~wage+capital,log=list(capital=FALSE,TRUE),lag=list(emp=2,c(2,3)),diff=list(FALSE,capital=TRUE))

I see:

emp ~ wage + capital

rather than the complete model that is given in the paper:

log(emp) ~ lag(log(emp), 1) + lag(log(emp), 2) + lag(log(wage), 2) +
lag(log(wage), 3) + diff(capital, 2) + diff(capital, 3)

And indeed, when I try to run a regression using that formula, it
appears to not contain any lags or logs (output below).

Any ideas? Thanks in advance,

~Owen
