Am I not allowed to use the scalar number together with -set obs-
No -- you can't use a scalar in this context. You either need to use macro expansion to evaluate the scalar, i.e.,
set obs `=number' or use a macro for this purpose (see -help macro-). -- Phil * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
