The variable "__000010" is a temporary variable, which was created 
internally either by -nlogit- or by a program called by -nlogit-. Temporary 
variables are described briefly in the Stata User's Guide under -[U] 21.7.1 
Temporary variables-, and described more fully in the Stata Programming 
Manual under -[P] macro-. (Many Stata users do not have a copy of the Stata 
Programming Manual, but all Stata users should have a Stata User's Guide, 
which is shipped with Stata.)

Yukako Ono does not tell us about the exact program which caused this to 
happen. However, if you know a lot about Stata programming, then you can 
often find out how and where a program failed by typing, in Stata,

set trace on

before typing the -nlogit- command.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Roger
