[Limdep Nlogit List] NLogit Error 1099

[Jose Sanchez]

Dear All,

I'm trying to run the following program (nested logistic):

sample;1-9729$ 
reject; choice=-999|cost=-999|chset1=9|chset2=9|chset3=9$
nlogit;LHS=choice;  choices=choicea,choiceb,choicec; 
                  RHS=cost,chance,damage,public,private,hi_pub,hi_pr$

and I get an error message: Error:  1099: Obs.  1987 responses should sum 
to 1.0. Sum is  2.0000

What exactly this error means? I looked in the manual and there is not 
much information.

Also, a colleague of mine ran the same program with the same data and did 
not get the error message. I'm running an older version 8.0.6 while my 
colleague is running version 9.  Is there a problem with the older 
version? If so, is there an update to fix the problem?
