You have the if in the command and also in the macro so that Stata sees "if
if"

Subject: st: syntax error using summarize command inside a macro
Hi there,
I am trying to produce a summary statistics on a series of variables
using the command SUM inside a macro subroutine. Apparently, my
"try=off" program (see below) is not working because a syntax error. I
cannot find the error. Would anybody be able to see it?
Thanks!
<snip>
. local samp1 "if prown3==0"
. foreach v of varlist `v1' {
2. sum `v1' if `samp1' [aw=`v1']
3. }
if not found
r(111);
