Richard,
Dr. Brian Poi who is a senior statistician at Stata helped me program it, but he had to
run off do attend to other things before we were finished with it. I am going to try to
finish it myself. I have to add the automatic detection, identification, and modeling
of one other type of intervention before it is ready for release.
At this juncture, it does automatically detect, identify, and model level shifts
and additive outliers. That is what I was using.
Regards,
Bob Yaffee
