Re: st: error ocurred loading .ado file (ccmatch.ado)

[Muhammad Anees <anees@aneconomist.com>]

This problem can arise because the command is not installed, So check
from command line what -findit ccmatch- results.

You will get

ccmatch from http://www.elwoodcook.com/stata
    ccmatch can be used to generate case-control matches in your data based on
    criteria specified in other variables. / by Daniel Elwood Cook

ccmatch from http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/c
    'CCMATCH': module to match observations on specified criteria / ccmatch
    allows you to match observations (individuals) on the / basis of any
    specified variables.  / KW: data management / KW: matching / Requires:
    Stata version 11 / Distribution-Date: 20111213 / Author: Daniel E. Cook,

Now you can click on the first line of each section and install it for use.
