I am running stata 9/se on Windows XP. I am having problems when I
click on a DO file (I have these properly associated with stata).
Option 1: >Prefs>Manage Preferences>Load Preferences>Factory Setting
When I click on my file, stata is running in the background but no
windows at all appear.
Option 2: >Prefs>Manage Preferences>Load Preferences>Maximized Windows
Settings
Now when I click on my file, I see many of the windows (Results,
Review, Variables, Command) but not the background Stata frame (sorry
I do not know the proper name for this-- I mean the toolbar, the
pulldown menus and the grey areas behind the windows I can see). This
background eventually pops up after the program is complete. I would
really like to have the background frame during the run too (e.g. to
interrupt the program).
Does anyone have a suggestion here? I watched the movie at the UCLA
site which was suggested on a similar question but I could not figure
out whether that addressed my point.
Thanks in advance
