It is definitely possible to call within a do-file another
do-file. The most likely cause of that error message is that
you are not referring to the right directory. The working
directory (the directory in which Stata is looking for do
file 1) is not the directory in which do file 2 is located,
but in Windows something like c:\data. You can change the
working directory with the -cd- command, or refer to the
do-file using the entire path.
Hope this helps,
