Dear Richard:
Thank you for your reply.
I tried using -mim- and version 1.4.6 PR 25apr2008 of -ice-, but I am still unable to reproduce results.
On a side note, I was under the impression that the command -adoupdate- would update user-written packages, but the command failed to update my installed -ice- package. Am I mistaken in my understanding of this coomand?
Tait

You might also try -mim- instead of -micombine-. I'm not sure why
both exist since Royston is an author of both, but my impression is
that -mim- is better. You may need to rename some of the vars
created by -ice-. -mim- is available on SSC.
