Dear Statalisters,
I'm having a little trouble with the -ci- command with several binary variables in a particular dataset. The problem is reproducible on other machines with this dataset, but not with other datasets. The problem is that -ci- displays 0 for all statistics, yet the correct results are returned to macros. I'll paste some output;
*--snip
. codebook var1

. ci var1
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Err. [95% Conf. Interval]

var1 | 1102 0 0 0 0
. return list
scalars:
r(ub) = .2770129342413987
r(lb) = .2257093888076031
r(se) = .0130734919800961
r(mean) = .2513611615245009
r(N) = 1102
*---snip
Other commands such as -summarize- are not producing the same problem. All I can think of is that the displayed values are getting rounded to integer values somehow. -ci- normally works fine. Does anyone have any suggestion as what is wrong with my dataset?
