Re: st: option error for rollreg function

[Benjamin Volland <volland@econ.mpg.de>]

Dear Martin & Maarten,

thanks so much for your help. I will certainly try the rolling function, 
but I suppose the problem might be a bit deeper rooted... but as rolling 
seems to offer similar possibilities I shall be content turning thereto. 
I just got word from a colleague that the sample program runs smoothly 
for him as well. I guess I'll have to check my set-up :), as this is the 
same for him, Martin and me (all using STATA 10.1):
. which rollreg
c:\ado\plus\r\rollreg.ado
*! rollreg  1.0.8  05mar2005 CFBaum

Cheers and have a nice week
Ben
