There seems to be a newer version from the Stata Journal 9(3), which you can
locate via -findit ice-...



But that is hardly the source of your trouble. How do other user-written
commands installed in the same folder behave when called?

Betreff: st: how do I know whether the user written ado is properly
installed [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Dear Statalisters

I recently downloaded _ice_ program. Due to system settings (no write
access to any of the folder in the 'C' drive), I could not store ice.ado
file in "C:\Program Files\Stata10\ado\base/i" directory. Instead, I
stored the ice.ado in a network drive. 

 

The -adopath- lists the following ado directory.

 

. adopath

  [1]  (UPDATES)   "C:\Program Files\Stata10\ado\updates/"

  [2]  (BASE)      "C:\Program Files\Stata10\ado\base/i"

  [3]  (SITE)      "C:\Program Files\Stata10\ado\site/"

  [4]              "."

  [5]  (PERSONAL)  "c:\ado\personal/"

  [6]  (PLUS)      "c:\ado\plus/"

  [7]  (OLDPLACE)  "c:\ado/"

  [8]              "H:\ado"

 

When I issue 'which ice', it seems that the ice.ado is in "H:\ado"
folder.

. which ice

H:\ado\ice.ado

*! version 1.6.7 PR/IW 10may2009. For history, see end of this file.

 

However, when I issue the command _ice_, I get an error message saying
'unrecognised command'.

 

. ice SEX A2 B1, dryrun

unrecognized command:  ice_

r(199);

 

I am not sure whether the error relates to improper installation of the
program. Any hint on what may be happening would be very helpful.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards

 

Pramod
