There is no longer one type of residual after a model like -probit-,
but many different types, six of which are directly available after
-glm-, but only one after -probit-:

*--------------- begin example ----------------------
sysuse auto, clear
probit foreign price mpg
predict dev_probit, deviance

glm foreign price mpg, family(binomial) link(probit)
predict dev_glm, deviance
predict ans_glm, anscombe
predict lik_glm, likelihood
predict pea_glm, pearson
predict res_glm, response
predict wor_glm, working
*---------------- end example ------------------------
(For more on how to use examples I sent to the Statalist, see
http://home.fsw.vu.nl/m.buis/stata/exampleFAQ.html )

Hope this helps,
Maarten
