label was built-in in Stata 9 and is implemented in .ado in Stata 10.
both label.ado and clear.ado are in updates directory, which means
they have changed since Stata 10 release.
1. create a .do file with a single command clear
run it
if there is an error: set trace on and run it. note the last file and
lines before the error.
clear must always work, if it does not, there is something with your
installation. make sure your update succeeded.
2. type:
which label
which clear
Post the response here
