ANOVA type III sum of squares?

Dear Francois,

As Brian Ripley and Kjetil Halvorsen have pointed out, the Anova function 
in the car package will compute Type III (and, incidentally, Type II) tests 
(for both linear and generalized linear models). If you decide that you 
want Type III tests, however, be careful with the contrast coding. In 
particular, for models with interactions, the default "treatment" coding in 
R will give meaningless results.

Hello,
I'm a neurophysiologist, and actually quite new to R. In fact, to analyse 
the responses of my neurons, I would like to have R doing an 
non-orthogonal ANOVA with a type III sum of squares.
Could anybody help me?
Thank you a lot in advance.
Francois
