Hi all,

I have been trying to run a multiple imputation analysis using the practical14 worksheets for over 2 days now. It's been one problem after another and a lot of these I have managed to resolve using some tips from the forum so thanks everyone. Unfortunately I am stuck with an issue it seems no one else has experienced. After running the MI in Realcome, I import the imputation on MLwiN, when I click start analysis, i get this message in equations instead of the multiple windows I should see:
-2*loglikelihood(IGLS Deviance) : not available(3132 of 4873 cases in use).

I am not sure why the cases are not available, there are no error messages. Did anyone else experience this or have a solution?

Thanks all

The number of cases reported here are for the initially loaded data, rather than each of the imputed datasets (which would all have complete data). This is because these are only loaded temporarily while the imputation analysis is being run, and the original data is restored once this is complete.

Thanks Chris for replying to both my posts, I have sent a response under the Realcom forum
