Hi Maarten,

I did follow your advise, but what I get is an error.
Here is the code used:

*------------ begin example ----------------
use "C:\Users\USER\Documents\BNP_CA125.dta", clear
stcox edad fe40 nyhahigh tas_ingresoCE naCEi hbCEi
i.ca125categ_bnp100, efron nolog
matrix b = e(b)

capture program drop mysim
program define mysim, rclass
    use "C:\Users\USER\Documents\BNP_CA125.dta", clear
    bsample
    estat concordance, beta(b)
    return scalar Harrell=r(C)
end

simulate Harrell=r(C), reps(100): mysim
sum area
*-------------- end example ---------------

And this is the error reported:

. use "C:\Users\USER\Documents\BNP_CA125.dta", clear

. stcox edad fe40 nyhahigh tas_ingresoCE naCEi hbCEi
i.ca125categ_bnp100, efron nolog
