Re: st: RE: Preserve
Thanks, Nick and Gary, both of whom suggested -restore,not-

restore, not
However, I was not interested in not restoring only at the end of the ado
file, but also in being able to restore later. Restore,not only cancels the
restore at the end of the ado file. but doesn't allow it subsequently as
this code shows.
program define testrestore
version 9.2
qui sysuse auto, clear
preserve
drop foreign
restore,not
end
Then:
. restore
nothing to restore
r(622);
. tab foreign
variable foreign not found
r(111);
What I wanted to do was to run program A which issues a preserve; run
another program and then be able to restore.
What I have to do to get the behavior I want is:
Save a file
make changes
run other programs
reload the saved file - a manual preserve and restore.
