Pedro,
You can use Stata/Transfer or you can save/export from Access to a .txt file
and use the -insheet- command to import them to Stata.
When you -tsset- your data you are declaring that yours is a timeseries (or
longitudinal type), therefore your panelid variable must appear just once in
every cross section (e.g. every year). If you have two of more panelid
values for the same time variable, then Stata won't be able to understand
the structure of your data.
