malmq.ado could not work with the save(filename) option, anyone know what's wrong with the ado file? ado file and datasets attached

[owen wang]

I use malmq.ado to calculate malmquist index in stata 14, it works OK.But when I want to save results to dta file with the sav(filename) option,there comes error message. MY codes are as follows:

use "E:\chi11_lee_files\lee2.dta"
malmq i_AC = O_SPI O_CPI,period( time) sav(E:\test\abc.dta)

then there comes a error message: <istmt>: 3499 file_exists() not found

Hi Nutan: write replace at the end of the command. sav(filename) replace Good luck
