I am running an ordered probit model using data that I wish to subset by
gender and race (both dichotomous measures). I am running the following
commands:

'by gender race, sort: ologit depvar indvars'

At that point, I get the correct output of 4 tables for the proper
combinations of the sorted variables (0,0)(0,1)(1,0)(1,1); however, when
I try to run marginal effects as:

'mfx, predict(p outcome(1))' (my depvar is 3 ordered categories)

I get the error:

'no observations
r(2000);'


clear all
set more off
sysuse auto
drop if rep78==1
su price,mean
g hip = price>r(mean)
forv p=0/1 {
	forv f=0/1 {
		di in r _n "High price==`p', Foreign==`f'"
		oprobit rep78 turn mpg if hip==`p' & foreign==`f', nolog
		mfx, predict(p outcome(#1)) 
	}
}
