Richard, a small correction, -use13- currently reads only native
Stata-13 datasets. It does not read Stata-12 datasets and "invalid
file format" error will be produced. I will add support of Stata-12
data in the future revision, since this has been already requested
quite a few times.
Currently Alberto can install the -use12- command from here:
http://www.radyakin.org/transfer/use12/use12.htm
For example:
use12 "http://www.stata-press.com/data/r12/auto.dta";
Best, Sergiy Radyakin
