R help - May 2005 - Standardized logistic regression coefficients

Hi everyone,

how can I calculate standardized logistic regression coefficients using
R? I used "glm" resp. "lrm" from the design-package in order
to
calculate logistic regression coefficients but I'm wondering if there's
a possibility to get standardized logistic regression coefficients?

Thanks in advance!

Design doesn't implement those because they have terrible properties. 
Instead consider interquartile-range odds ratios (done by summary.Design 
by typing summary(. . .)).
