I don't see any problem. My guess is that it ishow you have the file set
up. Can someone offer some advice?

Thanks for the tip. But the problem still prevails.
I have attached three files.
1. Aust1.csv is a test data which has 1,587 cases and 5 variables (v1 - v5). The
first two variables are continuous, and the last three binomial. The data file
is in the same directory as is the software (d:\amelia).
2. Gsrun.cfg file in which I have changed the default workspace value to 50m.
3. Gauss.log file showing the error message.
Cheers(See attached file: aust1.csv)(See attached file: Gsrun.cfg)(See attached
file: gauss.log)

I'm guessing its the directory into which you have it installed. See
http://gking.harvard.edu/amelia/node50.html and let me know if that
doesn't do it.

Hello Gary
Currently we are working with WHO (with Nicole Valentine and her colleagues)
on
health system responsiveness. They have used Amelia to
impute missing data,
and
to become consistent we will also be using Amelia.
I read two papers on Amelia which you and your colleagues wrote. These papers
are very informative. I downloaded the software, created a test data, and
tried
to run it. However, I ran into some difficulties.
Every time I give the name
of
the input data file (a coma separated ASCII file) and
hit return, the program
window vanishes. I tried increasing the RAM (from within the Gsrun.cgf) to
50m.
I still get the same result, the Amelia Program window
vanishes once I hit
enter.
I looked at the Gauss.log file, and the contents in the file are as follows.

Since I am a very first time-user, I did not know where to go from here.
Thanks in anticipation.
