-nearmrg- is from SSC. The Statalist FAQ makes it clear that you should explain where user-written programs you use come from. 

I guess that you are 

1. using an operating system called Windows 

2. being bitten because a path to your temporary file contains spaces. 

You could 

. set trace on 

And see where -nearmrg- crashes. 

I guess further that you may need to clone -nearmrg- and change references to `work' to references to "`work'", i.e. add extra double quotes. 

The first author of -nearmrg- is Michael Blasnik. He hasn't been evident on Statalist for a while and may have dropped off, so if none of this works you should contact him.

I'm having some problems getting the command nearmrg to work. I get this error message:  

invalid 'Settings' 
r(198);

Would seem like there is some syntax error in the coding?

Grateful for any advice you may have.

I'm pasting some example datesets and the commands I use.
