Sorry, Judy, but this is not what was asked for. To understand an
error message, it helps to see the code, meaning Stata commands, that
was typed.

You don't show the exact code you used to provoke such an error
message.

Dear Nick,
i have tried your command, it gives me error message.
matrices:
r(se) : 1 x 95
r(ub) : 1 x 95
r(lb) : 1 x 95
r(adj) : 1 x 95

number of observations will be reset to 95
Press any key to continue, or Break to abort
obs was 0, now 95
(95 missing values generated)
type mismatch
r(109);
end of do-file
r(109);
What i like to have SLAs (area codes) maintain the original source
(numeric format),eg., sla=201, 203 205 --- 4809, 5000 5050 etc..
instead of 1 to 95.
Cheers

Thanks Nick for your promptous response. SLA is an area code.
Since i
am away and have no stata program in my hand, i ccouldn't try to
run
it now, but i trust it will work fine.
Cheers

2011/7/11 Nick Cox <[email protected]>:
I don't know what SLAs are.
In your case, the row names, originally column names, are
apparently all
numbers, so you should be able to loop over the names and store
them in a
variable (_not_ column) something like this:
qui dstdize freq pop sex agegp, by(sla) using (t0)
drop _all
return list
matrix C = r(crude)', r(adj)', r(lb)' , r(ub)'
svmat C, names(col)
gen rowname = .
qui forval i = 1/95 {
replace rowname = r(c`i') in `i'
}

I am running a "dstdize" age-standardised rate syntax and got a
result
with Crude and age-adjusted rate, together with lower and upper
limit.
The age adjusted rate is reported by SLA level (which there are 95
rows or records). I have save the matrix in a file but the result
doesn't come along with SLA code. I could force it to do by
merge the
predefined file with sla code to the one saved in the matrix. I
believer there should be the smart way to do.
Here is my log file. Thanks for your help in advance!

The saved file looks like that, but what I like is to have a
column
named as SLA, corresponding to the SLA codes in the original data.
Could any expert give me some hint?
