Dear Statamembers,

I have a categorical variable, coded as 0, 1, 2.

When I do a a simple regression equation using "xi: regress depvar, indcontvar, i.indcatvar, "

Stata drops the category 2 (n=40/1196)

I have other categorical variables in the model, but everything else looks OK.

I have no idea why it's being dropped.

thanks for any insight.
Suzy
