Subject: cuminc() in cmprsk package for cumulative incidence

Hi, 


To use cuminc() from cmprsk package, if a subject has 2 
events (both the event of interest and the event of competing risk), 
should I create 2 observations for this subject in the dataset, one for 
each event with different fstatus (1 and 2), or just 1 observation with 
whatever event that happened first? My analysis objective is calculate 
cumulative incidence for the event of interest.

Thanks!

John
