This is a repeat of a message I posted toward the end of last year, which
Nick Cox kindly helped me to resolve. However, the resolution was only
partial as it fixed the bug in my code but I still seem to have a problem
with running the same file successfully in version 8 (it works fine in 7).
Here is the code:
program define alphawithin
version 8.0
if "`1'" == "?" {
global S_1 "alphawithin"
exit
}
tempname y
alpha bef*
scalar `y' = r(alpha)
alpha aft*
post `1' (`r(alpha)'-`y')
end
When I run this with: bstrap alphawithin, reps(10)
I get the following error message:
command -> alphawithin
error when command executed on original dataset
under version 8 control
r(198);
Any suggestions? Thanks,
Patrick
