Hello,
Thanks a lot for your suggestions. Actually, I had set too much memory.
I have reduced it and now the problem seems to have been solved.
Thanks again!

Indeed, this is one of the issues raised in the FAQs on memory
allocation
at http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/data/#mem
Can you create an extract with fewer variables? Or perhaps run the
analysis on a random subsample of the data? You might do preliminary
analysis on a random subsample and then run final models on the entire
data
set.
