Hello,

I tried to reduce the size of my dataframe. Now I have 57 columns of which
29 are already dummy coded. If I run   *mldata1<- mlogit.data(mydata1,
shape = "long", alt.var = "Alt_name", choice = "Choice_binary", id.var =
"IND") *it still gives me the same error message-* Error in 1:nchid :
result would be too long a vector. *

I will not use all of those variables in one regression model, but I need
those for different model specifications. The Excel file I created from my
survey looks like the attached file. The main data is a panel of 516
individuals each answering 9 questions over 3 alternatives.

Following is the output of the summary of the dataframe.
