So, given your experience of Stata 7, Nick: Did the misplaced paranthesis
somehow end up in the -options- for the -graph- command? The error message
initially reported by Victor in
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2010-06/msg00133.html would seem to
indicate this sequence of events.

command
The first error now seems pretty clear.
The parenthesis ( before lasttime(endfudate) is what is causing the
error. Delete it.
(You are probably misreading the syntax diagram within which the square
brackets [ ] group together optional options and are not characters to
be typed.)

Regarding the first error, I included no graph options in my
instructions. This is exactly what I typed:
stgest diabetes cursmoke agebase sex hyperten obese, lagconf(hyperten
obese diabetes) baseconf(hyperten obese diabetes) /*
*/ visit(visit) firstvis(2) (lasttime(endfudate) range(-50 50) step(1)
saveres(caergestsmoknocens) replace
I tried with two different datasets and got the same error.
