Tim,
You might try -set trace on- to see exactly where the problem is.
I don't think adding a verion 8.0 would matter since -areg- is written in
version 6.0. -areg- does make a call to -predict- which is in verions 8.2, but
I don't see how this could be the problem.
My version of -areg-, which works fine, shows this after -which-
. which areg
C:\STATA8\ado\base\a\areg.ado
*! version 1.3.3 31jul2001
and the sysdir and adopath are:
. sysdir
STATA: C:\STATA8\
UPDATES: C:\STATA8\ado\updates\
BASE: C:\STATA8\ado\base\
SITE: C:\STATA8\ado\site\
PLUS: c:\ado\stbplus\
PERSONAL: c:\ado\personal\
OLDPLACE: c:\ado\
. adopath
[1] (UPDATES) "C:\STATA8\ado\updates/"
[2] (BASE) "C:\STATA8\ado\base/"
[3] (SITE) "C:\STATA8\ado\site/"
[4] "."
[5] (PERSONAL) "c:\ado\personal/"
[6] (PLUS) "c:\ado\stbplus/"
[7] (OLDPLACE) "c:\ado/"
