Error using esrefline in meta forestplot in Stata 16SE

[Max Bulsara]

Hi
I get an error "option esrefline not allowed" "r(198)" using meta forestplot. I have Stata v16SE. I am following your recent newsletter article "In the spotlight: Customized forest plots for displaying meta-analysis results'. I have tried to "update all" and Stata informs me that the Current update level: 16 Oct 2019, and possible action - "Do nothing; all files are up to date". Any advise?

The -esrefline- option was added in the 05 Nov 2019 update. -update all- should resolve the issue.
