st: Fwd: AIDS model price index

[Stefano Verde <verdes@tcd.ie>]

Hello,

I have estimated an AIDS model by adapting Poi's code, which I found in the
stata 10 manual ("nlsur" command).

The problem is the following: Poi's program uses a temporary variable,
"lnpindex"; now, I would like to use the values of the latter for my
own calculations, but this is not possible as "lnpindex"
is indeed a temporary variable.

How can I overcome this? I'd imagine that I'd need to define
"lnpindex" as a global macro, instead of a temporary variable.
However, first I'm not sure if this is correct and then, even if it
was, I wouldn't know how to modify the code accordingly.

Any help? That would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Stefano Verde
