Dear Statalist users,
just a short question please regarding the Stata command `postfile'.
Is there any limitation regarding the size/number of lines regarding the file?
My code consistently returns dta output when using `postfile' that is 7338 lines long/862kB large,
even though the number of combinations far exceeds it (there were supposed to be 2^20-1 lines).
Thank you very much,
Tomas
