Hi Nick and Maarten,

people like you are the ones that make this list so very helpful!

Thanks a lot.

here is some example I just made up, that shows what I mean by "range
problem"

Notice that, as Nick already told you, -twoway function- cannot include
variables in the way you use it in your example. You must "create" your
dummies on the fly within your -twoway function- specification. So in
the example below I changed -d1- with -(x>1995)- and -d2- with
-(x>2005)-. For more on this trick see:
<http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/data/trueorfalse.html>


*--------------------------- begin example ---------------------
clear
set obs 20

gen int TIME = _n + 1990

* create dummies
gen byte d1 = 0
replace d1 = 1 if TIME>  1995
gen byte d2 = 0
replace d2 = 1 if TIME>  2005

tsset TIME

* set coefficients
scalar b_0 = 100
scalar b_1 = 2
scalar b_2 = 10000
scalar b_3 = -5
scalar b_4 = 20

* generate the time series
set seed 1
gen u = rnormal(0,2)
gen y = b_0 + b_1*TIME + b_2*d1 + b_3*d1*TIME + b_4*d2 + u

tw ///
     (tsline y) ///
     (function y = b_0 + b_1*x + b_2*(x>1995) + b_3*(x>1995)*x + b_4*(x>2005), ///
         range(1991 2010)), ///
     legend(order(1 "tsline" 2 "function"))
*-------------------------------- end example ----------------------------------

Hope this helps,
Maarten
