Since I have always used -xtabond2- and have never used the dynamic panel data estimation commands that come with Stata, nor have I read the correspondig pages in the manual , I cannot answer your questions.

Hi, Eric, thank you very much for your help. I think your quote from "How to do xtabond2" explains why the Hansen test in -xtabond2- is the same as the Sargan test in twostep -xtabond-. But when I include both "twostep" and "vce(robust)", the Stata will reports "cannot calculate Sargan test with vce(robust)". Does this mean that the Sargan test from the twostep -xtabond- is not robust? Moreover, could you please give me some hints on why  " performing the Sargan test after the two-step estimator is an alternative" that is stated in Stata manual (the manual for �xtdpdsys postestimation � Postestimation tools for xtdpdsys�, page 107 in Stata 11)?

Bests,
Ruiqing
