sorry the error is:
. parallel sim,expr(result =r(pafunde5)) reps(1000) seed(`seeds') dots: calc_paf
invalid 'AND'
stata(): 3598 Stata returned error

end of do-file

I don't know how to include the whole dataset since I have I feeling trying this code require the whole dataset since we have to loop through all the 20 imputed datasets and by age category.Is there away to upload the data here?

[Fredrick orwa]

Still requesting ant help to solve this.my code is running without parallel but its taking forever.I need to utilise parallel.I don't understand why its refusing

[daniel klein]

This looks like an unexpected internal error, meaning that there is probably nothing wrong with what you have done. I would contact the author for help.

[Fredrick orwa]

Dear Daniel I managed to make it run by apparently parallel did not want to use the directory "/Users/fodiwuor/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-KemriWellcomeTrust/fodiwuor/studies/AASRF_projects/CARRIAGE AND SYTEMATICREVIEW" because of AND in "CARRIAGE AND SYTEMATICREVIEW"

Do you have a good expirience with parallel.I would like to give you a call if yes.Still have some tasks I want to use parallel on but I fear parallel may divide observations that I want to use in one place ton different clusters. my contact is +254706305628.

Sorry, I have never used parallel and I do not have the time to provide comprehensive individual consulting.

easiest solution. Change the name of the folder, avoiding spaces
