Hi all,

When I issue a command followed by by a request statement as in something like below..

. db use
 . di "do you want to list: (enter 1 for yes 2 for no) " _request(_answer)
do you want to list: (enter 1 for yes 2 for no) . use "C:\data\results.dta", clear

Stata automatically uses the echo from the db use command as _answer. Is there anyway to prevent this?

Regards
rajesh
