i am trying to open a stata 7 dataset using stata 7 on another computer and am
repeatedly getting error message r(610) "file ___.dta not stata format." I
have gotten a similar message before when trying to open a stata 8 data in
stata 7 and just had to save the data down a version. but this cannot be the
problem this time, as the computer on which i originally saved the dataset is
running the same version of stata...
have tried the manuals and FAQs, but no luck.
any thoughts/advice greatly appreciated. many thanks.
