Hi, May be try using id (instead of country) as cross-section identifier. Creating id is easy in Stata: http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/data/group.html I recently used the following commands to my data set, and it worked by id: hprescott lm2, stub(hp) smooth(6.25) Hope you find this helpful.

I'm facing a problem with -hprescott-. When I write the command xtset country year by country: hprescott gdp_constant , stub (hp) smooth(6.25) , the result is no observations but when I don't give the smoothing parameter,that is, by country: hprescott gdp_constant , stub (hp) it works assuming a smoothing parameter of 1600 which is for quarterly data(I think). Please help.
