dear Richard! the getDirectList() functin failed to take the regionvar. returns Error in getDirect(births = births[[1]], years = years, regionVar = regionVar, : region variable not defined, and no v101 or v024!

HI Awugchew, I believe you need to define the regionVar in the function call. For example, instead of

getDirect(births = births[[1]], years = years, regionVar = regionVar, ....)

Maybe

getDirect(births = births[[1]], years = years, regionVar = "v024", ....)

The ... are the rest of the arguments you provide. And the place I put down "v024" is the column name in the data that correspond to regions. Depending on the dataset you run, it may be another column, so just replace "v024" with that column name (and remember to put quotation marks around it).
