RE: Antwort: st: problems installing outreg2 (Windows Vista)

["Girsberger Seelaus, Esther Mirjam" <EstherMirjam.Girsberger@eui.eu>]

To DMV: When I type 'which outreg2' I get the following answer: 
'command outreg2 not found as either built-in or ado-file
r(111);'

To Oliver: Copying the necessary files didn't work. Either because they were not copied or they are not recognised...

To Richard : By 'Stata just crash' I mean that after typing 'ssc install outreg2, all replace' I get an error message by Microsoft Windows which tells me that Stata no longer works. It gives me the option to 1) go online and look for a solution and end the program, 2) end the program or 3) debug. All three options lead to ending Stata without installing outreg2... 

And yes, I think that Stata connects to the Internet because I was able to register my licence. 

And no, I cannot get a description of outreg2. (ssc des outreg2 also leads to a crash). What do you mean by adjusting the settings for your proxy server under general settings in Stata?

...
What exactly do you mean by "Stata just crashed"?

Does your Stata connect to the internet?
Can you find a description of -outreg2- (ssc des outreg2)?
If yes I dont know the solution to your problem.
If no you may need to adjust the settings for your proxy server under
general settings in Stata.

Best,
Rich
