Hi Anders,
Here's the last line for the original data after
setting trace on:
- keep id `junk' `touse' `wgt' wt2 _pwt2;
= keep id emoprobb age harassd puberty11 firstvi
ktouch usborn2 harassd age edim
> p milserved __000000 __000002 wt2 _pwt2;
; invalid name
}
--------------------------------------------------------------
end ssm.Estimate ---
- exit _rc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
end ssm ---
r(198);
Here's a reproduction of the problem using the
nhanes2a dataset for survey data
(http://www.stata-press.com/data/r8/svy.html), which
has sampling weights:
. ssm diabetes age sex weighthi [pweight=finalwgt],
s(weighthi = age sex rural) adap
> t q(16) family(binom) link(logit)
; invalid name
r(198);
Setting trace on:
- keep id `junk' `touse' `wgt' wt2 _pwt2;
= keep id diabetes age sex weighthi weighthi age
sex rural __000000 __000002 wt2
> _pwt2;
; invalid name
}
--------------------------------------------------------------
end ssm.Estimate ---
- exit _rc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
end ssm ---
r(198);
Thanks again.
