I take it back. The problem was temporarily solved by typing "drop _all".
However, after a few repetitions, I get the same error code again and typing
"drop _all" no longer works. Closing stata and restarting doesn't help.

code.
: Initially when I run these commands, they work fine.
: However, after several uses (even without changing any of my code), I get
: the following error:
: **in outputst
: - tempfile tmpdta
: - qui save `tmpdta',replace
: invalid 'and'
: r(198);

: **in hotdeck
