I'm having trouble debugging a program. The program used to work but now
something's gone wrong. (It's been about a year since I worked with this
program, and I think it was in Stata 7 so I've set the version in my
program, since I now use Stata 8.2.)
I keep getting "variable X not found" errors, even though when I describe
or tabulate the variable, it's definitely there and without missing values.
In my program, I do have some
drop _all with set obs
commands so I can make some predictions. I also have
estimates drop _all
at the end of the program (before the -post- command), but I didn't think
these would cause the variables to be dropped, only the observations,
right? Also, the program runs fine without bootstrapping, so I thought it
must be related to bootstrap.
I won't burden the list with the entire program unless that's necessary to
help me debug this. Anyone have a similar problem before?
