R help - Sep 2004 - Nnet: Returning the response

Hello list.
Maybe this is a simple question but I can't find the answer anywhere.

With lm I use the parameter y=TRUE to have the response returned in $y. Of
course, namely because of NA's in the data frame, this might not include all
the values in the original column. For example:
> data(airquality)
> length(airquality$Day)
[1] 153
> my.lm <- lm(Day~.,data=airquality,y=TRUE)
> length(my.lm$y)
[1] 111

When using nnet, is there a way to have the response returned in a similar way?

Thanks in advance,
Rui Dantas

I don't think so.  ?nnet does not mention any `y=' arugment for that
purpose
(and in fact `y' is used by the default method to specify the response for
training, not as a flag for returning values).
