Dear All,
Apologies if this is a rather dim question, we are beginners in stata!
Perhaps someone can help us, we are trying to use the strel or strel2
function to give us relative survival for prostate cancer patients but keep
getting an error.
The command we are using is as follows:
replace ageexit=ageexit+0.0001 if aadx==ageexit
stset ageexit, f(status) origin(aadx)
save, replace
strel2, br(0[0.1667]1[0.25]3[0.5]) using("d:\diane\onssurv\lifetmp2.dta")
mergeby(period sex age) group(1) continue
and the error that comes up is:
<=3 invalid name
(The error is the same when we use strel).
I would be very grateful if anyone can help us with this.
Thank you.
Tracey.
