Cox model with competing risk error message

[sophie liabeuf]

Dear all,

I am trying to run a competing model with stata and have always the same error, please see above, I don't know if someone could help me.

Thanks by advance

Sophie

My script is

egen facid_merge = group(facid5 patcens), label

gen status=0
replace status=2 if all_died_7==1
replace status=1 if hosptype_new==1

stset eventdt1, origin (start_dt) f(status==1) scale (365.25) id(facid_merge)

stcrreg mage, compete (status==2)

The stset part runs well, it is the part with stcrreg that gives the error message :

option compete(): competing risks events must be stset as censored
r(459);

What version of Stata are you running? I thought at first that the space after "compete" would trigger the error message, but in Stata 14.2,, that doesn't happen. So, I'm stumped.
