My suggestion is this.
Contact tech-support at Stata Corp with the
following information:
1. Specify the version(s) of Stata you are using
on both machines. Give whatever is produced by
typing -about- in each case.
2. Specify how the dataset is read into Stata.
3. Give the results of -describe- on this dataset
and the office copy of Stata.
tech support may well want more information.
