It is not nearly as complicated as Dennis Murphy makes out.

Just do

     aov(y ~ ., data=X)

where X is your data frame with one column (the response) name ``y''
and then any number of other columns which will then form the
predictors (which may be either numeric predictors or factors).

     cheers,
