st: Re: metan

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

It appears that there is an error in the package accompanying SJ 8:1  
metan. The SSC version of these materials (dating from October 2007)  
includes a program metan_examples.ado, which implements the clickable  
examples in the help file. It should have been included in the SJ  
distribution of this program. I do not know whether the code in other  
metan components has been updated in the SJ version of the package,  
but I think if you -ssc install metan- you will be able to run the  
examples.
