Hello

I am running several meta forestplots for subgroups which worked fine in the version of stata 16 on 14 Nov.

meta forestplot _id outcome_name trimester _plot _esci _weight, ///
subgroup(sga_order) eform ///
esrefline(lcolor(green) lpattern(dash)) ///
nullrefline(favorsleft("Decreased risk") ///
favorsright("Increased risk")) insidemarker nonotes ///
random(ebayes) crop(. 2)

meta forestplot _id outcome_name trimester _plot _esci _weight, ///
subgroup(outcome) eform ///
esrefline(lcolor(green) lpattern(dash)) ///
nullrefline(favorsleft("Decreased risk") ///
favorsright("Increased risk")) insidemarker nonotes ///
random(ebayes) crop(. 2)

The first code produces a plot however the second produces an error thinking that meta is a variable

Effect-size label: Log Odds-Ratio
Effect size: logor
Std. Err.: se
Study label: author

variable _meta* not found
r(111);

end of do-file

r(111);

. update meta
invalid syntax
r(198);

Any suggestions what I am doing wrong?? Thanks
