Dear Jeff,

The error indicates that the vector you entered as covariate does not
have the right length (two times the total number of subjects).
Depending on what you actually want to do with the ANCOVA, you might
want to use a two-sample t-test after contrasting the within-subject
factor at the first level ([1 1] or [1 -1]) and including the covariate
there (potentially interacting with group).

Best regards,
Guillaume.
