Perhaps -tsfill- would help?
Scott,

I think -tsfill- must be right. The problem I'm having is that the panel I'm creating has, as an indicator variable, four variables: state name, age cohort indicator, race and sex. So, for instance, when I reshape the data, I use a nested reshape like this:

. reshape wide ir, i(fip age race sex) j(year)

But when I attempt to -tsset- the data, I can't seem to use the same kind of nesting. When I simply use -tsset-, I use this:

. tsset fip year
repeated time values within panel
r(451);

Do you have any thoughts on this?

scott
