As Scott's example underlines, -point()- is an option to -spmap-, not a command. So,why is there a problem here? Presumably, whatever Veeresh is presenting to Stata as a command starts with -point-, so Stata is looking at it and thinking it knows no such command. We have to guess because Veeresh did not follow advice in the FAQ: "Say exactly what you typed and exactly what Stata typed (or did) in response. N.B. exactly! If you can, reproduce the error with one of Stata's provided datasets or a simple concocted dataset that you include in your posting."
