Subject: [Limdep Nlogit List] Write Command

Hi,

I'm a new user of Limdep and have encountered the same problem as the one discussed below in January. Unfortunately I'm still not clear on how to resolve the problem and was hoping someone could provide further advice. The command I am trying to run is:

write;
TripA,avessel,adistanc,aimpact,aenved,acost,location,previous,rating,age,income,educatio
TripB,bvessel,bdistanc,bimpact,benved,bcost,location,previous,rating,age,income,educatio
TripC,cvessel,cdistanc,cimpact,cenved,ccost,location,previous,rating,age,income,educatio
TripD,dvessel,ddistanc,dimpact,denved,dcost,location,previous,rating,age,income,educatio
TripE,evessel,edistanc,eimpact,eenved,ecost,location,previous,rating,age,income,educatio
;file=StageTwo
;format=(12F60.5)$

The response is:
  Error    71: Variable list contains a name not in the expected table.
  Error   539: Variable list: The unidentifiable string is TRIPA

Many thanks,
Megan

Ok, I reformatted the data in excel

Now the problem seems to be that I cannot use binary explanatory
variables in my choice model
Is this true?

Any suggestions for the best model specification for evaluating the
association of categorical variables
e.g.
DV choice frequency/proportion (i-j) = Bx(i-j) + e, where x is
dichotomous

Steve

Steven. You are way over the limitation. That is the problem with the
other command set that you sent me as well. I am thinking about whether
there is a simple work around. At this point, there seems not to be, 
but I always find that after working on a problem long enough, something
shows up. Not yet.

I am running into an apparent limitation on the number of variables I
can write to a new file

The following give me the error

 

Error    71: Variable list contains a name not in the expected table.

  Error   539: Variable list: The unidentifiable string is HOUSE

 

But I don't get the error if I reduce the number of variables

Any suggestions?
