Martin, maybe I'm wrong, but as far as I know :
-"reg3" and "nlsur" don't estimate N3SLS with instrumental variables I wanted to estimate.
-"reg3" allows IV but doesn't treat nonlinearity in parameters.
-"nlsur" allows nonlinearity but no IV.
The only way to program N3SLS in Stata would have been to program GMM with Mata.
But I decided to run the estimation with another software estimating N3SLS quite easily.
So I'm not able to estimate it with Stata and the only thing I can do is trying to reconstruct the estimation by "hand".
Yes, I try the "ereturn post" command, even with a small program (Post) trying to add some local... see below :
clear
mat drop _all
capture program drop Post
program Post, eclass
syntax, r(string) vce(string)
eret post `r' `vce'
eret local cmd "nlcom"
end
/****example with 2 estimations****/
/*1st estimation*/
matload b1 /*in reality, I have a .txt that I insheet, then mkmat and then matsave*/
matload V1
Post, r(b1) vce(V1)
est store toto
/*2nd estimation*/
matload b2
matload V2
Post, r(b2) vce(V2)
est store titi
suest toto titi
after "suest" I have the message : "estimation sample of the model saved under toto could not be restored"
Probably because I haven't the "e(sample)" information I'm not able to have since I have no data here...only matrix in my Stata session...
