-cond()- is a function, not a command.
-cond()- has either three or four arguments. The outer -cond()- in your example is illegal because it has two.
gen col = cond(pension == 1,
cond(jub == 1, 1, 2))
The first argument in the outer -cond()- is
pension == 1
and the second is
cond(jub == 1, 1, 2)
but there is no third argument.
The inner -cond()- is legal.
Your definitions are not clear to me, so I can not say what is the correct syntax. It may be
cond(pension == 1 & jub == 1, 1, 2)

I'm trying to tabulate some information, but I�m having problems doing
it, so I�d appreciate if you could see it and tell me what's what I�m
doing wrong.
What I did, was:
gen col = cond(pension == 1, ///
cond(jub == 1, 1, 2))
label define col 1 "pension, jub" ///
2 "pension, Sobrevivencia" ///
label value col col
Where the variables have this information: pension = (0,1, 2)
jub = (0,1)
