Thank you for the tip, but it's stating that 'k' is an invalid name, although
it is defined. If you have any more ideas I would love to see them.
Thank you

Quoting Felipe Salazar <[email protected]>:
If I understand correctly, you have 204 variables named mon1 mon2 mon3
... mon204. I would type:
local k=1
while `k'<=204 {
keep if mon`k'=="3"
local ++k
}

I'm having one problem with a command in STATA 8.0. I have variables
in which
I want to keep only one case in all of them, but there's too many (204)to do
one by one.
i.e.
keep if mon*=="3"
keep if mon[i]=="3"
But I get an "mon ambiguous abbreviation" error. Please help!!!
Thanks
Dexter E. Jason
