Thanks Austin:
Yes, lag operator might have been a cause and seems intuitive as well
but problem still remains the same. Same error message again with
bootstrap
ivprobit dependent x y l.z (zz = mz pz), twostep vce(bootstrap,cluster(country))
repeated time values within panel
the most likely cause for this error is misspecifying the cluster(),idcluster(), or group() option
r(451);
The only thing that comes to my mind is that data structure is defined as panel before ivprobit but even in that case why it would produce cluster-robust vce but not cluster-robust bootstrapped vce.
Thanks again,
Shehzad
