resetxt: error on basic run

[Frans Englich]

When using the resetxt plugin I get the following error:

. resetxt esg netincome, id(id) it(date)

==============================================================================
==============================================================================
__00001E not found
r(111);

Any idea what's wrong? At first glance it to me looks like a bug.

I installed the software from SSC, and downloaded the example data, and tried the first example given in the output of help resetxt and had success - at least, it ran with no error, I am not able to judge the appropriateness of the results. I will note that when I omitted the model() option, my results matched yours, as the second example shows. So even though the doumentationof the syntax suggests model() is optional, it appears to be required.

. use resetxt, clear

. xtset id t
       panel variable:  id (strongly balanced)
        time variable:  t, 1 to 7
                delta:  1 unit

. resetxt y x1 x2 , id(id) it(t) model(xtbe)

Hi William. Yes, specifying a model solved it, thanks. However, I get a new problem now with resetxt. I've started a new thread: https://www.statalist.org/forums/for...small-data-set.
