Thanks, but it would still help to see what you are actually typing 
and the output you are getting.  It could just be a typo in your 
syntax or it could be some fundamental misuse of the program.

Also, do you have the latest version of the software?  Here is what I 
get when I check the estsimp program which is part of the package:

. which estsimp
c:\ado\plus\e\estsimp.ado
*! version 2.1 January 5, 2003
*! version 1.3.1  April 24, 1999  Michael Tomz
*! version 1.3  June 7, 2000
*! version 1.3  April 24, 1999  Michael Tomz
*! version 1.3.1  April 24, 1999  Michael Tomz

(I'm assuming that this is Gary King's clarify - if not, let us know 
where you got the program from.)
