- During the creation of residual files in the presence of missing data, some level-2 units were incorrectly deleted.

Got problems with HLM 5? First check your version (see Help, About within HLM program), If it is not HLM5.05, please upgrade it first.
The HLM 5 FAQ online contains a list of error message and how to deal with it, and any new problems reported recently. This information is only available online, and not in the help file in HLM 5.
The biggest problem with the HLM 5 currently is the import of data produced by new releases of statistical software packages such as SPSS 12. For a workaround, please see the HLM 5 FAQ online.
We apologise for any inconvenience and/or frustration this problem may have caused. Should you have further problems, please feel free to contact technical support directly at hlm@ssicentral.com. Please provide the product version number and your software serial number/CD key, as this service is only available to registered users of software published by SSI.
