Dear Mark,
I have also contacted STATA support about this error. They have spent
quite some time running my code to check where the problem comes from
but couldn't find a solution. However, they found out that the error
comes from rkstat.
I would appreciate if you have any suggestions on what else I could do.
Regards,
Erasmo
