Re: st: Adopaths

[Gilles Desve <g.desve@epiconcept.fr>]

Hello

To change ado paths, use following command :
sysdir set PERSONAL "d:\data\perso"
sysdir set PLUS "d:\data\plus"

The easier is to put that commands in profile.do
The profile.do must be in your main stata data directory. This do-file 
is executed every time you launch stata.

Best regards
Gilles
