You would need to use -glm- set of routines with -family(binomial)-.
If you also want all of the residual diagnostic tools provided by the
-regress-, you can back-transform your data by taking inverse logit or
probit links ( ln(y/(1-y)) and invnorm(y), respectively), although I
am not quite sure there is a solid statistical foundation for doing
so.
