Hmmm... ran your code and I get the same coefficient and se from
-margeff- and -margins- using Stata 11, see below
...
Did I do something wrong not to get different results?
It is not often that we get questions like this -- "Did I do
something wrong that caused me to get the correct results?" :)
Personally, I get different results from the two programs, margeff
and margins. Why you get it right, I don't know. Are you using the
same versions of Stata and margeff as everyone else? If so, is there
any chance that at some point you patched your margeff and have since
forgotten about it? Here is what I get.
