Hello,

I'm having trouble with an option that has worked successfully for me in the past, but is now giving me an error message.

This code gives me the requested forest plot:
metan PPV PPVse if strpos(Intervention2,"OBPM")>0 & strpos(Intervention1,"ABPM")>0, ///
  effect(PPV) lcols(Study ABPMType Threshold2) /*double*/ rcols(pos_screen) scheme(s1mono) ///
  nooverall astext(80) textsize(160) nulloff force ///
  nobox xlab(0.0, 0.5, 1.0) t1(Proportion of OBPM-Positive that are ABPM-Positive) ///
  t2((Reference Standard=ABPM))

But when I take out the /* */ around "double" I get the r(198) error code. I've tried moving the double option just about everywhere else in the command, and I've tried running it with only

metan PPV PPVse if strpos(Intervention2,"OBPM")>0 & strpos(Intervention1,"ABPM")>0, ///
  effect(PPV) lcols(Study ABPMType Threshold2)  double

which also did not work.

I've searched archives of statalist and also the internet more widely. I am losing my mind looking at this! Any ideas are appreciated.

Thank you,
Elizabeth
