funnelcompar function not recognised

[Julie Wood]

hello

I have been given a do file that runs on other systems but when I try running it I get an error message "command funnelcompar is unrecognized", do I need an add on or a particular version of STATA for this to run. I have a large number of funnel plots that I need to get working and I have no idea where to start if the function isn't recognised.

Thank you for your help

Julie

funnelcompar is a user-written command that you will need to install on your system in order to get the do-file to run. You can install it conveniently from within Stata. At the command line in Stata, type

search funnelcompar

and then follow the hyperlinks on the Viewer screen that pops up.

Thank you very much, it now works
