Dear Statalisters,

Using my whole dataset (with several others variables) I type:

. metareg logor, wsse(selogor) reml

and obtain:

numerical derivatives are approximate
nearby values are missing
numerical derivatives are approximate
nearby values are missing
numerical derivatives are approximate
nearby values are missing
could not calculate numerical derivatives
missing values encountered
r(430);

Then, I do the following: clear, inpute the same data but only the two
variables and obtain sucessfully the result I am looking for:

clear

end
metareg logor, wsse(selogor) reml

Does anyone have a guess about what is going on with -metareg- (the most
recent version)?


Cheers!
