So when you -trace- the execution of -reshape- with your problem in mind,
you can see that it is actually the limits of -tabulate- that bite here
(hence no entry for -reshape- in -help limits- which initially bewildered
me).
According to -help limits-, the limits differ between -version-s. For my MP,
the limit is at 12,000 unique values. Your number exceeds all of the limits,
so you have to find a way around this along the lines of Kit`s suggestion.

Dear Stata Community,
I always get the error r(134) when I try to reshape!
What can I do ?
Anything conceptually wrong with my commands ?
>>
. sum
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
date | 32494 14804.6 105.3298 14640 14973
permno | 32494 65554.46 23142.46 10051 92866
ret | 32494 .0081212 .1509227 -.8353909 3
. reshape wide permno, i(date) j(ret)
ret takes on too many values
r(134);
<<<
ret takes on too many values
r(134);
Thank you so much,
Mark
