Francie,

Both these commands accommodate basic FE models when no time dimension
is specified.  From the xtivreg help file:

    A panel variable must be specified. For xtivreg, fd, a time variable
must also be specified.
      Use xtset.

xtivreg2 is similar but also allows you to specify the panel identifier
with the ivar() option.  See the xtivreg2 help file.
