In the Stata 10 Programming manual, under 'return' its says:
Be careful with this syntax: do not code
return local name = `mymacro'
because that will copy just the first 244 characters of `mymacro'. Instead, code
return local name `"`mymacro'"'
Either way, I am not able to copy more than 244 characters into my returned local macro.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there a workaround this limitation?
(I am using Stata/SE 10 for Windows).
A part of my code is given below.
