Hi, I'm using crrstep package to do stepwise covariate selection for the Fine & Gray competing risks regression model. However, I keep getting an error (please see below). Please help!! > PHstep <- crrstep(years~1+var1+var2+var3+var4+var5,scope.min=~1,censorcmprsk, data=crisk, direction=c("forward")...

Dear All, I would like to use R function 'selectFGR' of fine gray model in competing risks model. I used the 'Melanoma' data in 'riskRegression' package. Some of the variables are factor. I get solution for full model but not in variable selection model. Any advice how to use factor variable in 'selectFGR' function. The following R code is produced below
