It looks as if the sysadmin might need to do that. Nick n.j.cox@durham.ac.uk DE SOUZA Eric Probably the simplest would be to uninstall the older versions. If I'm not mistaken, the way to do it is -ado uninstall pkgid [, from(dirname)]- Nick Cox You are working in the wrong directory for -ivreg2- to see the latest version of -ranktest-. Or equivalently, the latest version of -ranktest- was installed in the wrong place. -which- and -adopath- show that from where you are working -ivreg2- will find first the older -ranktest-, so that it unsurprisingly complains. There are various ways round this. One is to change your -adopath-; another is to navigate to a different directory to do your work. Another is to uninstall the older versions on the network. In general, you need to study the idea of -adopath- which underlies all this, and the whole thread shows that insufficient information defines a difficult question.
