Re: st: Outreg margins error

[Wameq Raza <wameq.r@gmail.com>]

Dear Carsten and John,
Thank you so very much for the replies. As for the syntax Carsten
suggested, STATA gives me an error when estimating continuous
variables such as the ln of expenditures. The error message it gives
me is:

-lntotalexp:  factor variables may not contain noninteger values-

Any suggestions for this?

And lastly a question for John, when do you suppose the new version
will be released?
Thanks again for your help!
