Hi Statalist

I am trying to use the dfl command for Dinardo, Fortin and Lemieux
decomposition. I want to compare the z-scores distribution of black
and white (color) children. The z-scores are:
zwei: weight-for-age
zlen: height-for-age
zwfl: weight-for-height

And the independent variables are: child sex (girl) and log of family
income-per-capita (log_income_pc). I have a lot more variables but I
decided to use just two and try to figure out what is happing. I
continuous not understand the error, so I ask for help.

Stata:
dfl color girl  log_income_pc, outcome(zwfl)
for not found
r(111);

dfl color girl  log_income_pc, outcome(zwei)
for not found
r(111);

dfl color girl  log_income_pc, outcome(zlen)
height ambiguous abbreviation


Thanks, Sarah
