After setting my panels using tsset, I typed xtserial x y z - the 'no
observation' r(2000); pops up. I searched the statalist forum and It
seems that many people have experienced this issue, but there's yet a
solution to this. It has nothing to do with the data being unbalanced
as I've tried xtserial both on an unbalanced panel and a balanced one.
All my data are numerical, so there's no problem with that. Any idea?
