Dear runmlwin-runners,

I have tried to run a binary model with two levels with runmlwin in stata.

runmlwin dep cons an2009, level2(imena: cons) level1(iepi:) discrete(distribution(binomial) link(probit) denominator(cons))

But I was not able to get a result. Instead I got the following message:

The model did not run properly in MLwiN. You most likely clicked the Abort not found

Could someone explain me what I did wrong, please ?

Thanks in advance
Isabelle

Isabelle,

You most likely clicked the Abort Macro button in MLwiN rather than the Resume Macro button (which you will need to click once to fit the model and a second time to return the model results to Stata).

The error message you reported tried to say this but was a bit garbled. I have now improved it to say...

"The model did not run properly in MLwiN. You most likely clicked the 'Abort Macro' button in MLwiN, rather than the 'Resume Macro' button."

Note, once you know what you are doing you can avoid having to click the 'Resume Macro' button in MLwiN by specifying the -nopause- option. In your example you would write the following
Best wishes
