R help - Jul 2011 - Out of Sample Prediction Interval/Point Estimate

Hi All, I have been requested to come up with an out-of-sample prediction 
einterval and point estimate. I have never done this and I am hoping for help 
from you all.

First can R do this?
If so, what are the steps?
What do I need?

I have a data file that I can include, if that would help.

I'm between a beginner and intermediate user of R so if it is complicated, I
may
be asking for a lot of help.

Thanks so much

Zeda.

Sounds like you should look for a local statistical consultant.
