Dear Seb,

If I want to do panel data estimations, I guess that the dataset should report observations for all the years, otherwise it would be treated as an unbalanced panel (I guess). My data set is not an unbalanced panel; but the observations for which the count variable is zero are not reported.
I need it also to do dexscriptive graphs, to report the number of "zero" counts by year.

Regards,
Andr�

Andr�,

before I start thinking about trying to help you to solfe your problem
I am really eager to understand why you would want to add observations
to your data that contain no extra information. Do you need that for
output purposes?

Kind regards,
sebastian
