Dear All,

I would like to know if any of you has created an S-function that
finds confidence bands for the following generalised logistic model
(Cox and Snell, "Analysis of Binary Data", 1989, pp. 155-157)

p_j = exp(b_j*x)/(exp(b_1*x) + ... + exp(b_J*x))

when the estimates and the variance-covariance matrix of the
parameters b_j (j=1,...,J) are given and x is the vector of
covariates.

Several parameters are involved in the formula. If somebody can
suggest a methodology to find good confidence bands for p_j I would
be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Gabriel
