Not sure there's a Stata routine for it, and that was after trying -findit
multinomial probit-. Consider Liao's (1994: 48) comments:
"The probit counterpart of a multinomial logit model involves solving
multiple integration related to the multivariate normal distribution and
thus is computationally difficult in estimation and rarely used."
Given this, doesn't -mlogit- cut the mustard for you?
