I have looked at your data again. As far as I can see it's still true that there is nothing in #11 that can be used for interpolation for firm_month1 == 2.
Code:
. l abc if firm_month1 == 2 +-----+ | abc | |-----| 76. | . | 77. | . | 78. | . | 79. | . | 80. | . | |-----| 81. | . | 82. | . | 83. | . | 84. | . | 85. | . | |-----| 86. | . | 87. | . | 88. | . | 89. | . | 90. | . | |-----| 91. | . | 92. | . | 93. | . | 94. | . | 95. | . | |-----| 96. | . | 97. | . | 98. | . | 99. | . | 100. | . | +-----+
Sorry, but I can't comment further without a reproducible example.
Otherwise no interpolation method of concern here can do anything if all values are missing.
Just to add to your problems, it's a kind of holiday weekend in Britain where I am and my activity on Statalist is likely to be intermittent at best.
