Tabout Version 3 does not work on Macbook (apple M2 chip)

[Chau Hai Le]

Hi all,

I am using a MacBook (apple M2 chip), running STATA 17.
I have below code which works well with Tabout version 2. However it does not work with Tabout version 3 and an error popped up.

Does anyone have an idea about this?
Thanks!
