help check codes for two-level model with sampling weights

[Alicepcnew]

Hi everyone,

I am working for a research center. We used to have MlWin on our server but no more do. A programmer who used to work for our center several years ago wrote a MlWIn program to run a two-level model with survey data. My job right now is to make sure the codes she wrote are still working in MlWin. But I don’t have MlWin in our center to check the codes. The codes used Graphical User Interface. I wonder if you could help check for me to ensure that they are still working.

Outcome variable is a continuous variable meaning percentile BMI: bmipct
Variables in the model: hr_watch (number of hours watching TV last week); rc_s (the availability of recreation center at school); watch_rc (interaction between hr_watch & rc_s)
School ID: psuscid
School-level weight: schwt_1
Individual-level weight: w1_wc

You can see the original codes here:

Thank you so much for your help!

Any model that worked with version 2.02, which from the screen shot appears to be the version that you were using, should still work with the most recent version. If you wanted to double check this you can download a 30-day trial version from:
