I get a strange error message on a histogram command using Stata 9.2
on Windows X64:
. histogram mc2t0405
(bin=20, start=44.09, width=2.7955)
parentheses unbalanced
r(132);
However, I have no problem summarizing the same variable.
. summarize mc2t0405, detail
math % meeting and exceeding standards for all
students [overall district standa

Has anyone seen this? It's happening for any variable I try to run a
histogram on.
