Re: st: Calculation of attributable risk in surveys (SVY)

["Roger B. Newson" <r.newson@imperial.ac.uk>]

Georgia does not specify the version of Stata being used. However, as 
Nick's quote indicates, -punaf- comes in 2 versions, a Stata Version 12 
version downloadable from SSC and a Stata Version 11 version 
downloadable from my website by typing
net from http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/stata11

and selecting and installing -punaf-. The Stata Version 11 -punaf- does 
not run under Stata Version 12, and vice versa. This is because 
StataCorp made changes to the -margins- command, which is used by 
-punaf-, during the transition to Stata Version 12.
Best wishes
