I am running a loop of regressions that should only be completed when
all variables are included. In case a variable is dropped I want to
skip the rest of the loop and continue with the next regression.

Example:

. logit foobar foo bar

note: foo != 0 predicts success perfectly
      foo dropped and 99 obs not used

The regression still runs, but with an incomplete set of variables.
How can I check whether a variable was dropped? For example, does
Stata create a return code in such a case? I use Stata 8.2.

Thanks,

Friedrich
