[Richard Williams]

It is not clear what the problem is anymore. So, you changed w1 to `w1', etc.? If so are you still getting errors, and what are they? Show us the most recent code and output, using code tags (see pt. 12 of the FAQ) Like Nick and I said before, I would also try running the commands with trace on. It might then be obvious to you what the problem is, or at least where it is located. And, like I also suggested before, starting with fewer variables and then gradually adding more might help to identify the problem. Unless you are willing and able to share the data, it is hard to look through a very long block of code and easily identify the problem, so you need to help us out a bit more.

Dear Colleagues and Richard Williams

First some information concerning to previous post, I tried to change nlsur nlsurquaidsNPS into nlsur nlsurquaid13 on purpose to check but didn't worked,

and

I am using Stata 13.1

wp= is log of prices
w= is expenditure share of goods,
x= household demographics
Moreover, I have tried to reduce variables from 7 goods to 4 goods from 5 demographics to 2 but anywhere the results of 7 or 4 goods coming up with this error message:

nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS returned 199
verify that nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS is a function evaluator program
r(199);

and all my other changes didn't save, because didn't worked and didn't helped

Therefore, codes more less similar to previous one:

Thank you


Code:

cap program drop nlsurquaidsNPS
#delimit;
program nlsurquaidsNPS;
version 13.1;
syntax varlist(min=20 max=20) if, at(name);
tokenize `varlist';

You have not told us what the error message that results from the code you presented in #12 and #17.

Please review the Statalist FAQ linked to from the top of the page, as well as from the Advice on Posting link on the page you used to create your post. See especially sections 9-12 on how to best pose your question.

Having done that, try the following. I am assuming you continue to use #delimit ; and you should use the log option rather than the nolog option until you get your program to work.

program dir;

This was copied from #12 above. If as in #17 you now use /// to break long lines, be sure to leave a space before the ///.

Then copy from your Stata results window everything between the program dir command and the error message Stata presents and paste this into a Statalist post using CODE delimiters, as described in section 12 of the FAQ.

In case the instructions for creating CODE delimiters are not clear to you, here is an example of how to create them manually.

[code]
// sample code
sysuse auto, clear
describe
[/code]

will be presented in the post as the following CODE block:

// sample code
sysuse auto, clear
describe

[Nick Cox]

Try inserting spaces before the single quotes within

gen double`lnpindex'= 

replace`lnpindex'=

gen double`bofp'= 0;

(and others of the same kind)

i.e.

gen double `lnpindex'= 

replace `lnpindex'=

gen double `bofp'= 0;

(and others of the same kind)

[William Lisowski]

Thank you for using code delimiters, that is much more readable than what you posted previously.

I requested that you run the program dir command immediately followed by the nlsur command (using the log option) and that you copy everything from the program dir command through the error message from nlsur and paste it into a code block. If you do not show us exactly what commands you have issued and exactly what Stata did in response, we can only guess about what the problem might be.

With that said, Nick's advice certainly points out one set of problems that are causing you trouble. You should correct them.

[Guest]

Dear Nick

Thank you and I inserted spaces and checked all the spaces as well still not working and the same error message:
nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS returned 199
verify that nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS is a function evaluator program
r(199);

[William Lisowski]

You previously told us you ran the command

nlsur nlsurquaidsNPS @ ...

but your error message

nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS returned 199

tells us you ran the command

nlsur nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS @ ...

and of course Stata did not find a program named nlsurnlsurquaidsNPS

[Guest]

Yes, it is right after running

//nlsur quaidsNPS  @  w1 w2 w3 w4 w5 w6 w7 wp1 wp1 wp2 wp3 wp4 wp5 wp6 wp7 lnexp x1 x2 x3 x4 x5, ifgnls nequations(7) parameters(a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6 a7 b1 ///

r74 r75) log;

I am getting this error message:

//
nlsurquaidsNPS returned 103

//

[William Lisowski]

The output of help rc 103 tells us

[P] error . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Return code 103
too many variables specified;
The command does not allow as many variables as you specified.
For example, tabulate takes only one or two variables. See the
syntax diagram for the command.

So somewhere within your program nlsurquaidsNPS you have a command that specifies too many variables. You might consider removing the quietly { and the matching } to see where the error occurs.

It is possible your problem stems from this statement, if you haven't already corrected it.

replace w2=(`a2' + `g21'*`wp1' + `g22'*`wp2' + `g23'*`wp3' + `g24'*`wp4' + `25'*`wp5' + `g26'*`wp6' + `g27'*`wp7' + `b1'*(`lnexp' - `lnpindex')///

which is missing the letter g in `25'*`wp5'.

[Guest]

Dear Mr. William Lisowski,

Right there was missed the letter " g" now I have changed it :

replace w1 = (`a1' + `g11'*`wp1' + `g12'*`wp2' + `g13'*`wp3' + `g14'*`wp4' + `g15'*`wp5' + `g16'*`wp6' + `g17'*`wp7' + `b1'*(`lnexp' - `lnpindex') + `l1'/`bofp'*(`lnexp' - `lnpindex')^2 + `r11'*`x1' + `r12'*`x2' + `r13'*`x3' + `r14'*`x4' + `r15'*`x5');

end;

also removed the quietly { however still not working

Thank you

[William Lisowski]

If you cannot, as repeatedly requested, copy everything starting at the nlsur command and ending at the error message, including everything in between, and paste that into your posts, then I cannot help you.

[Guest]

I am sorry for disturbing all of you,

[Guest]

Question:
for the
Command :

nlsur quaids  @

which AIDS has to be installed ?

package st0028_1, ////  package st0268 //// package st0268_1 ////, package  st0029_1

Thank you,

[Guest]

Dear Colleagues,


I have found which package has to be installed from: http://www.stata-journal.com/sjpdf.h...lenum=st0029_1

 . net sj 8-4
  . net install st0029_1
