st: Execute Stata ADO code

["Francis, Richard N" <rnfrancis@utep.edu>]

Hi Statalist,

I have revised the ADO code for a Stata program located on a network server, but I have no administrative privileges for this server.

Is it possible to execute the revised code without reloading the program on the server?

Eventually, the program is likely to reload on the server, but it would be convenient to work with the revised code in the interim.

If it helps, the first few lines of the code are as follows:

***********************************************************************
*
*		DOMENICO DEPALO 	- Tor Vergata University, Rome - 25Jan08
*				
*		This version: 	- La Sapienza University, Rome - 14Mar09
***********************************************************************

program define sroot, rclass
	version 6.0, missing
	syntax varname(ts) [if] [in] [, TRend noCONstant /*
		*/ Lags(int -1) REGress SEASon(varlist) GENerate(string) RESiduals(string)]

    	if "`generate'" != "" {
        capture confirm new variable `generate'


If no work-around is possible, I understand.

BTW, the original code is available at: http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj9-3/st0172/sroot.ado

Any ideas are appreciated!

Thank you!

Rick Francis
