The article by Brian Poi starting on page 6 of Stata News (Vol. 25(2)) at
http://www.stata.com/news/statanews.25.2.pdf
contains an example on using -gmm- to estimate a Poisson model with instruments.
***************************************************
. webuse docvisits, clear
. gmm (docvis - exp({xb:private chronic female income}+{b0})),
instruments(private chronic female age black hispanic)
***************************************************
Is there an easy way to modify this to include an offset variable;
that is, a variable that is constrained to enter with a coefficient
equal to 1.0?
