Thanks Martin for the hint. I guess you are correct. Now I realize that it is really the printing not the estimation that produces the error. Because the vector e(b) has all the estimated coefficients in it of course. And all other estimated results are produced as well. When I type ******************************** qui xtivreg n l2.n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1981-yr1984 (l.n = l3.n), fd ******************************** I don't get an error message.
