If this is what you typed then it won't have worked and you will have
seen error messages like this....
. set memory = 700Mb
'=' found where integer expected
r(198);
...and the amount of memory allocated to Stata will remain at 10Mb
(according to the error message you have posted).
See -man memory- for the correct syntax which when executed will show
you how much memory you have allocated...
. set memory 700M
Current memory allocation
current memory usage
settable value description (1M = 1024k)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
set maxvar 5000 max. variables allowed 1.909M
set memory 700M max. data space 700.000M
set matsize 400 max. RHS vars in models 1.254M
-----------
703.163M

It might be worth taking a moment to read -man syntax- so that you
understand the syntax structure of Stata commands, otherwise you'll
likely find you get quite frustrated over simple things like this.
