Hello,
I'm not completely sure I understand your problem, you should say what
is the package you are using.
If it's just a doubt on how to access the elements of what seems to be a
list, here is an example:
x <- list(a=1:5, b=rnorm(4))
x$a
x[[ "a" ]]
x[[ 1 ]]
If it's from package vars, the help page says the return value is a
"list with matrices", and then you can easily adapt the example above.
In which case I'd recommend you take a look at An Introduction to R,
file R-intro.pdf in the doc folder/directory of your R installation:
"Chapter 6: Lists and data frames
Components are always numbered and may always be referred to as such. [...]
in the simple example given above:
Lst$name is the same as Lst[[1]]"
As you can see, it would have saved you some time.
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas
