BTW, I think Nick`s solution should be written with a single pipe symbol for
it to work as intended:
*******
clear*
inp byte( id number)
1 34
2 43
3 67
4 56
6 78
end
cap drop if id==2 || id==4
di in r _rc
drop if id==2 | id==4
*******
The double pipes are for separation of subgraphs in a -twoway- graph or
levels in -xtmixed-...

Just to mention another solution (not as good in this example)
drop if id==2 || id==215 || id==302 || id==420 || id==579
