I should add that in the -help- for -stset-, the brackets indicate where options, if any, should go. Before running an unfamiliar command, always look at the examples at the bottom of the help screen or in the manual.

Steve

Remove the second pair of brackets in your -stset- statement. They are not legal Stata syntax.

Sorry for the impatientness, but I have to solve the problem very soon. 
The case:
- 4841 subjects with multiple record per subject (max 4 records)
- for each subject exists a weight, which identifies the real abundance pattern in time

I used the following do-file: 
gen des =tfin~=ti

gen tf = tfin-tstart+1

gen org=1+2*(spell-1)
replace des=org
replace des=org+1 if tfin<ti
gen tfc=tstart if spell==1
replace tfc=tfc[_n-1] if spell~=1 & hhnrakt==hhnrakt[_n-1]
gen tsp = tstart-tfc
gen tfp = tfin-tfc+1
stset tfp [fweight=gew] [ ,id(hhnrakt) f(des=2 4 6 8 10 12) exit(time .)]  

Thanks for your support.

Jette, can you provide a reproducible example? That may help diagnose
your problem. Can you reproduce the error with -sysuse- data or
provide your console output, please?

Also, it may take more than a few hours to get a response given
different time zones and work schedule.
