Dear Martin,

Thanks so much for your reference to the webpage. I looked into the
page you mentioned. It talks about two different cases which may cause
this problem 1) this happens when a continuous variable (or a
combination of a continuous variable with dummy variables) is a great
predictor; and 2) hidden collinearity-- this happens when all the
regressors are dummy variables. Since my regressor list includes both
continuous variables and dummy variables (a lot of individual dummies),
can I simply ignore this warning message of "4,305 observations
completely determined. s.e. questionable" after my regression? Thanks!
