  • Graph function stopped working

    Hello,

    I am using stata 14.0 and I accidentally saved an "sts graph" under the name "Graph" and now whenever I try to make a graph stata says

    sts graph

    failure _d: fail
    analysis time _t: syears
    object Graph (not a graph) exists:
    Graph cannot be used as a graph name r(110);

    I have tried to change the names of the graphs I accidentally saved, as well as throwing them away. I may have thrown the function away because the graph icon is no longer functioning at all, I can't even open it. I have searched the web but I cannot find any solutions.
    I would very much appreciate help.
    Thank you in advance
    Hanna Sahlin

    Try re-installing Stata?

      You may not have to reinstall Stata. See if Stata tech support can help.

        Definitely either reinstall (copy your ado files somewhere so you can quickly get back to work) or try to get the overwritten ado file from stata support, if that is what went wrong.

          The problem is not an overwritten ado file. My guess is that the problem would disappear at the close of a session.

            Thank you for your answers, I am afraid it has not been resolved after closing a session. I will contact the stata tech support, or reinstall stata. Thank you all, most kind!

              Dear all,

              I have encountered the exact issue as Hanna Sahlin. @Hanna: were you able to solve the issue?
