There is nothing wrong with the code you have typed - the error must be in the "do something" bit...
In the "do something", the local macro `x' will take the value "code" the first time through and "age" the second time through. Is this what you wanted?

Subject: RE: st: re: Stata 9
Dear all
I have the situation below (c and age are numeric variables c =
100....200 age = 1...7)
local c = "code age"
foreach x in `c' {
do something
}
It seems it doesn't work as Stata doesn't recognized code as variable
Any suggestion or direction in thinking
Thank you in advance
Dejan

I imagine we've seen the last of any new features for Stata 8.2.
Hopefully
bug fixes will continue for a while, although I suppose we can't count
on
that. I've reported a couple of bugs recently and was told they were
fixed, but now I am wondering if they were fixed for version 8 or 9 or
both.
