Thank you all. My friend has lost his copy the program he was talking about in one of his computer moves. I will email the original authors.

This question has come up before:
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2006-08/msg00166.html
I suggest you email the person who claims he got a copy of it.
As a sidelight, I wish people would either put their stuff on SSC, or
else register their sites so -findit- could locate their routines.
