Error running xtbreak r(3200) #13

Dear Prof. Jan Ditzen, I ty to use xtbreak in Stata18. I receive an error r(3200) and the error message does not seem to be informative. I do not know because it is not working properly. I use the data to check the decoupling hypothesis between emissions (CO2), economic growth (GDP), fossil (FEC), renewable (REC) and nuclear (NEC) energy consumption variables in each European country for the period 1990-2019. The model is transformed into the natural logarithms in order to interpret the coefficient estimates as the elasticities of the response variable with respect to the independent variables. ln(CO2 )=α+βln(GDP)+δ1 ln(FEC)+δ2ln(REC)+δ3ln(NEC)+v Query xtbreak with GDP, FEC and REC is working perfectly. But when I also want to include the additional variable NEC for countries in Europe with nuclear power generation capacity. xtbreak displays the module error r(3200). For example, I attach the database for Belgium. For this, it is impossible for me to run xtbrek with all variables. database_belgium_v.1.xlsx Thank you in advance for reply. Jesús Lucindo
