{pstd}
Please, if you can, visit
{browse "http://www.stata.com"} before calling technical support.  Our web
site has lots of support materials for Stata users.  It is worth visiting even
if you are not experiencing difficulty.  If you are having trouble, you will
find a large Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.

{pstd}
If your question is "Does Stata have the ability to do ..." we suggest that
you first use the {helpb search} command.
{cmd:help} and {cmd:search} may be accessed by pressing {hi:Help} and then
selecting {hi:Search}.

{pstd}
If you do contact us, we would like you to know

1.  Technical support hours are 9 to 5 Central time, Monday
through Friday, excluding holidays.

{phang2}
2.  Technical support via email should be sent to
{browse "mailto:[e-mail]":[e-mail]}
and must include your serial number.

{phang2}
3.  If you call, have your Stata serial number ready.  If you
fax, you must include your serial number.
You can obtain your serial number by {dialog about_dlg:clicking here}
or using the {cmd:about} command; see {helpb about}.

{phang2}
4.  After the first 14 days, only registered users qualify for
technical support.

{phang2}
5.  If you call, have your manuals handy.  If your question is about a
specific command, have the manual available to you that documents that
command; that is, the {hi:Stata Programming Reference Manual},
if your question is about
programming, the {hi:Stata Longitudinal/Panel Data Reference Manual} if your
question is about one of Stata's {cmd:xt} commands, etc.  If your question is
not about a specific command, then have these manuals available to you:

{p 16 20 2}{hi:Getting Started with Stata}{p_end}
{p 16 20 2}{hi:Stata User's Guide}{p_end}

{p 12 12 2}
We will feel free to refer to pages in the manuals when we answer your
question.  If you are a student and do not have all the manuals, borrow or
obtain copies BEFORE you call.

{p 12 12 2}
You will find that we are mighty friendly people.  Nevertheless, do not
call with the excuse, "I do not have manuals and I was wondering if you could
tell me..."

{p 12 12 2}
Our friendly inclinations will be assured if you merely have your
manuals.  We do not even mind if you have not looked at them and are seeking
advice on where to start.  We know there is a lot.
