Re: st: IV with many dummies

[Chris Parker <cparker.phd2007@london.edu>]

Alex,

I would try - xtivreg - or - xtivreg2 - if you have panel data. If not
try - center - to absorb the dummies yourself and then run - ivreg -.
Be sure to center all variables and adjust the degrees of freedom
afterwards.
