Could someone please help me to find out how to transfer a .dta file onto Mplus?
I know that there is stata2mplus command just do not know how to get Stata extension for Stata se13 (64 bit) to proceed successfully with the command.
Please help
Kind regards
Witold
Not sure what specific problem you run into because stata2mplus should actually do data transfer in Stata 13 SE 64 bit (at least it does for me). You could try saving your .dta file in version 12 format before using "saveold" and then apply stata2mplus on that file. Also try re-installing stata2mplus (maybe version update?). There is also a Stata module called "runmplus" (downloadable via SSC) that lets you run Mplus code from within Stata (haven't tried it myself though). Of course, you could also export your data as a comma-delimited text file (command "export delimited") and write your own input (.inp) file for Mplus, which would require a bit more effort, however.
Hello guys,
I installed this succesfully SJ-15-4, dm67_4 (please see attachment) and still obtaining this in my stata window: "unrecognized command: stata2mplus"
Not sure what is wrong as it SHOULD be working fine now. Stata is up to date and I restarted comaputer. Any ideas? Please and thank you
Try typing "search stata2mplus" or "findit stata2mplus" in Stata; it should direct you to the correct package. If that doesn't work you can download most commands manually from https://stats.idre.ucla.edu/stata/ado/analysis/ Then you need to unzip the content to your ado folder.
Hi Witold,
You probably have to specify the directory before the installation. In fact, those who access Stata through their institution’s virtual lab have to do same. You need to set your ADO personal directory space in Stata to a location on your personal computer. For example, if you saved the ADO files at the following location “C:\users\guest\tests”, use the following Stata command to set the directory:
sysdir set PERSONAL “\\client\c$\users\guest\test_folder”
If you would like to use the “SSC install” command to install the user-created ADO saved on your local computer, be sure to change the ado plus storage location. Here is an example:
sysdir set PLUS “\\client\c$\users\guest\test_folder”
