And the simpler way is to write
. local month 01
. di "`month'"

Jean-Benoit Hardouin a �crit :
Try
. local month="01"
. di "`month'"
. di `month' display the result of `month' as a number, but . di
"`month'"
display the macro as a string

Thomas Speidel a �crit :
Dear Statlisters:
I would like to store the number or string 01 to a local macro.
However, typing:
. local month=01
will produce:
. disp `month'
1
Other ways I tried include:
. local month="01"
. local `month'="01"
Any suggestions?
