OK, I think that I understand better.  In your original post it
appeared that you already had used the multcomp package.  But now it
looks like you have heard that multcomp is the tool to use, but you
don't know how to use it, is that correct?

p.s.  It is best to keep these discussions on the list, others may be
quicker to respond and/or have better answers.

Now I want to get some other CIs for b0 and b1, the CIs are Bonferroni,  Tukey's and Sheffe CIs,   Have i explained clearly? And I don't know at all how to do it.... I only heard these CIs in Multcomp package, but i totally don't understand how to compute these CIs for coefficients of linear regression. So i asked u for help, i hope u can understand me. Any help can be useful whether you show me related  package, code or  how to compute the CIs.  Note that, my question is how to compute these CIs for coefficients not the difference in means for different groups.

I only know how to compute these three cofindence intervals in multicomparsion by using multcomp package, and i am search a lot for how to comupte the three CIs for linear regression coefficients but without any useful information, so, plz help me ~
