Hello Peter,

I also got exactly the same output that Eric mentioned below. Hope you will be 
able to find a solution soon.

This is what  I get with your instructions ( verion 11.1):

. matrix lr = (.,0\0,.)

Subject: st: command: svar in Stata11

Dear all,

I am using Stata11 to set up an SVAR model. Before going to program my own 
material, I tried to replicate the examples on the SVAR Help.

I get an error message, after doing these 3 lines, telling me the following:


     webuse m1gdp
     matrix lr = (.,0\0,.)
     svar d.ln_m1 d.ln_gdp, lreq(lr)

r125
numdepvars() invalid -- invalid number, outside of allowed range

So it seems that if I have 2 variables, the program does not understand I have a 
2x2 matrix with restriction (or vice versa).

I checked, and updated, my Stata11 license, and even with the most recent 
update, I get this message. Is there some practical issue I am overlooking?

thanks a lot,

Peter
