R help - Mar 2006 - GARCH Forecast?

I am trying to forecast volatility 2 periods forward using a ARCH(1) model:

predict(garch(fit2,order=c(0,1),n.ahead=2))


 ***** ESTIMATION WITH ANALYTICAL GRADIENT ***** 


Error in qr(com.hess$hess, ...) : unused argument(s) (n.ahead ...) 


What did I do wrong?

Thank you.


Best regards,

Misplaced ')'. Maybe:
predict(garch(...),n.ahead=2)
Anyway, typing:
?predict.garch
(I'm referring to the tseries package) I can't see any 'n.ahead'
argument
support documented.
