Hi folks!  

I'm having trouble with an imputation.  When I run the following on the attached data, I get the subsequent error.  Any thoughts on how to fix? 

a.out <- amelia(
vars.to.impute, 
m=5, 
outname="miset", 
idvars=c("caseid", "weight", "inputstate", "race", "religion", "as_likely", "less_likely"), 
noms=c("gender", "bornagain", "cbsatype"), 
ords=c(
