st: Stata behavior

[Wolney Conde <wolneyconde@gmail.com>]

Dear listers,
I'm facing a very strange Stata behavior. I've a long routine to execute 
over a dataset in Stata (version 9, updated to 14 april), so I put it in 
a do file. Two information: the data set is large (17,000 observations) 
and has complex sample (the analysis use the survey family commands). 
When I run the do file and write the command for estimation in command 
window I get the first output below; when I execute the routine from the 
do file (including the command for estimation) I have the second out 
below, which is very different from the first one. Anyone has 
experienced that sometime? Any suggestion to dealing with it? Any ideas 
about the problem source?
Thanks in advanced
Wolney.
