st: Areg Problem Fixed -- Thanks

["Tim R. Sass" <tsass@coss.fsu.edu>]

In an earlier posting I mentioned a problem I was having executing the areg 
command.  Following Scott Merryman's advice I ran a trace and found the 
problem to be a call to -predict- which is in version 8.2.  As Kit Baum and 
Mark Schaffer correctly suggested the cause was an incompatibility between 
my ado and executable files; I had updated the ado files but not the 
executable.  I have now updated everything and areg seems to be working 
fine.  Thanks to everyone for their help.

BTW it seems that upgrading to version 8.2 solved another problem I was 
having.  In version 8.0 Stata took a long time to start up and to exit when 
I was operating my PC remotely using PCAnywhere.  With version 8.2 it opens 
and closes just as quickly with PCAnywhere as when I am sitting at the host 
computer with Stata on it.
