st: macro

["Hans J. Baumgartner" <hbaumgartner@diw.de>]

Dear statalist,

I am saving my data within loops and address the data with global macros.

I would like to save the date using the macro and add some text as a 
suffix.

i.e.:

global data file-name

save $data_text

How can I separate the global with the suffix?

Thanks
Hans
