Remember that we know nothing about your Stata set up, the kind of
model you are trying to estimate, the data you are using, the error
messages you get, unless you tell us. How can you expect us to be
able to give you any sensible advise based on the information you
have given us? I am not trying to be nasty, I am just trying to
explain to you that we need information to diagnose your problem.
If you do not give it we cannot help you, not because of some petty
adherence to the Statalist FAQ, but because of a lack of telepathic
or extrasensory ability.
