Dear Beatrice,
if my understanding of your problem is correct, you can solve your issue by directly specifying as depvar your continuous variable. -tpm- will automatically generate (for the first part regression) a dummy equal to 1 when the continuous variable is greater than 0. My suggestion is to normalize your continuous variable in order to get a depvar that is bounded between 0 and 1.
HTH,
Federico

Unfortunately tpm requires that the dependent variables for both parts are the same (error:"The dependent variable must be the same in both equations" r(110)). In my case, the dependent variable are different, the first stage has a discrete variable (0,1) and the second part has continuous variable but include 0 and 100 (proportion). I will appreciate any further insights.
