I believe that from reading the manual and other documentation the impression is that the time dimension of panel data would be equivalent to the time series case. > > The "strange message" is trying to say that isn't implemented for panel > data ("This command won't work with the current periodicity"). I wasn't explicit about "strange", but I certainly didn't just get that message which would be self-explanatory. Instead I got a sequence of about ten very weird and seemingly unrelated messages. I'll see if I can replicate them.
