Re: st: dummy variable for panel cointegration

[Ronnie Babigumira <rb.glists@gmail.com>]

This is quite different than your original question (I don't see the "unrecognized" error you say Stata gave). 

That aside, the more important question is why you want to create dum1 and dum2 instead of using dummy. You may find this helpful http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/webbooks/reg/chapter3/statareg3.htm

Hope this helps

Ronnie
