Thanks Martin. I get the following, when I ***************** update, query (contacting http://www.stata.com) Stata executable folder: R:\stata11\ name of file: Stata.exe currently installed: 21 Oct 2009 latest available: 20 Apr 2010 Ado-file updates folder: R:\stata11\ado\updates\ names of files: (various) currently installed: 20 Apr 2010 latest available: 20 Apr 2010 Utilities updates folder: R:\stata11\utilities names of files: (various) currently installed: 11 Feb 2010 latest available: 11 Feb 2010 Recommendation Type -update all- ***************** And that seems ok, except for the executable. I agree, updates are important!!!
