The variable statistics in a non-linear estimation are incorrect with Gaussx 4.0.1.

This information applies to GaussX, Vsn  4.0.1

Symptoms

A non linear estimation (NLS, FIML, GMM, ML) with a (d) option produces variable statistics that are incorrect.

Cause

The Covax routine is picking up the full data file, rather than the sample file.

Resolution

Use the create option:

     create ...;
     oplist=disk;

This has been corrected in GaussX, Vsn  4.0.2
