I am getting an error message after executing ICE in STATA 9.  I am
using the following syntax.

. ice     mdrgnc-mdrsvc mdsm_quit-mdr50 mdrk10000-mdrk24200000
>         mcrk390000-mcrk24180000 crgnc-csm_quit crk10000-crk1060000 crk180000-crk24200000

The error I am getting is the following,

Imputing postfile: variable mdrk120000_mean already exists
r(110);

What is confusing is that I don't have a variable mdrk120000_mean in
the dataset I am running the imputation on.  I realize this is part of
the algorithmn that ICE uses but I am not sure what I can do about it.

Thanks for your help,

Woolton
