Lubo,
I don't know much about -bfit- (as per the FAQ, you should provide information on where this came from), but based on what I could find out about it, I can't imagine a reason why it would require a string variable. Accordingly, the only suggestion I can provide is to do a -set trace on- before running the -bfit- command and see exactly where the problem is. If that doesn't give you any hints, report back and perhaps someone here will have some ideas.
Regards,

Hello,
The actual command was : bfit logit v gend appt cdate
The variables were originally in an SPSS file then converted to Stat
format using StatTransfer.
Lubo.
