If I understand this correctly, you want something
like this:
. su depcom if nomcom == "Acheres", meanonly
. local mymacro "`r(min)'"
That is, if only one observation is for the commune
of Acheres, then -depcom- for that observation
will be the minimum (and also the maximum,
and the mean) of -depcom- with the -if- condition.
This assumes that -depcom- is numeric.
At worst, -depcom- is string. Then you must do
something like this:
gen long ordre = _n
su ordre if nomcom == "Acheres", meanonly
local mymacro "`= depcom[`r(min)']'"
