You can use whatever -nl- supports, which includes the specification of weights. But -nl- is not -regress- PLUS nonlinearity! 

If you want something beyond -nl-, you might need to do much more substantial programming, or approach it differently. This problem is fitting a power function with some constraints and -nl- is not the only way to do it.

Graeml (Dainf) (a.k.a. Rodolfo) 

I´m using a substitutable expression programs (Nonlinear leastsquares 
estimation). The program (below) works very well. However, I would like to 
use robust option or some else that corrects heteroskedastic in nonlinear 
estimation. How can I implement it? Best regards,

program define nlcobPR

            version 9.0

            if "`1'" == "?" {

                global S_1 "a b c"

                global a=0.4

                global b=0.4

                global c=0.2

                global S_2 "Cobb Douglas"

                exit

            }

              replace `1' = $a*((k^$b)*(l^$c)*(t^(1-$b-$c)))

       end

     nl cobPR y if uf=="PR"

     program drop nlcobPR
