Hi everyone,

I am using wbopendata to retrieve data in Stata 17.0. However, it says command _pecats2 is unrecognized. Could you please help me to solve this problem? Many thanks!

wbopendata, language(en - English) country(CHN;) topics() indicator() clear long
command _pecats2 is unrecognized

The same author has shared a separate package that appears to include the _pecats2 command.
