Hi,

 Just to follow up with the earlier mail;

The three models

Model 1:

reg3 (depvar1 varlist1) (depvar2 varlist2) ... (depvarN varlistN),
      exog(iv1 iv2) endog(endogvar1 endogvar2) sure

Model 2:

reg3 (depvar1 varlist1) (depvar2 varlist2) ... (depvarN varlistN), sure

Model 3:

sureg (depvar1 varlist1) (depvar2 varlist2) ... (depvarN varlistN)

are giving me the exact same results.


Whereas

Model 4:

reg3 (depvar1 varlist1) (depvar2 varlist2) ... (depvarN varlistN),
      exog(iv1 iv2) endog(endogvar1 endogvar2) 3sls


gives a result totally different. Model 1-3 gives results which are very
much similar to simple OLS.

I am now a bit confused whether "sure" option with -reg3- is actually
doing an IV when I estimate it with endog() and exog() options.

Kindly help me with this. Thanking you in advance.

Rijo John.
