Please cancel the original message below. I updated Stata and was able to
read help inrange, which I understand. I realize that inlist is the function
I needed.
Thank you and sorry for the bother,

Subject: inrange
I am using Stata v8.0 and get this error message. MAT_RACE is a numeric
variable. I searched StataList archives and could not find an answer.
. g byte ETH6X=1 if ETHNICIT==8
(5970 missing values generated)
. replace ETH6X =2 if inrange(MAT_RACE,1,5,6,7,9)
invalid syntax
r(198);
Thank you in advance for your help.
