Any results

[likestatistic]

Hi,
Maybe basic but I can’t find a solution.
I am using runmlwin but I must “abort the macro” on MLwiN and “start” the estimation to get the result. I can see the results on MLwiN but nothing is displayed on stata (it is running nonstop).
Could you help me?
Many Thanks

The command

runmlwin respons cons, level3(area: cons) level2 (fam: cons) level1(id: cons)

Thanks+++

Could you provide more information on why it was necessary for you to abort the macro, instead telling it to resume? If this is due to an error message could you post what it says?

Hi ChrisCharlton,
I don’t get any error message. The system runs on Stata nonstop since tomorrow without displaying the result. But when I use the same database on MLWiN it works.
Thank you

Oups!

Running your model works for me:

Code: Select all

Does the "Resume Macro" button not appear for you in MLwiN after it opens? Have you tried adding the nopause option to your runmlwin command?

Many Thanks ++++
It works with nopause
