st: bootstrap with fixed effects

[joachim jarreau <joachim.jarreau@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am running this:

bs b=(_b[leav]), reps(5) noisily saving(bsres, replace): reg lv leav
ldist contig comlang i.repyear i.partyear, ro

on a sample of 1250 obs.
stata runs the five regressions and obtains the coefficients, but displays

- collinearity in replicate sample is not the same as the full sample,
posting missing values -

after each regression except the first one, and

- insufficient observations to compute bootstrap standard errors -
- no results will be saved -

at the end.

ok so collinearity changes from one bootstrap sample to the other, so
that some fixed effects are dropped in some and kept in other samples.
 But I would just want to store the values of the coeff on the
variable leav. That is why I put the b=(_b[leav]) option. But despite
this option, it does not store this coefficient value, although it is
well defined.
Is there a way to do this? thank you in advance.
