I did not advise to make any correction, simply pointed out an error - which
has since seen official confirmation, so it is hard to argue that it is not
an error...
Your code initially stopped because there was a line beginning "resample...
which Stata could not understand. This initial finding does not preclude the
existence of other errors.
The bare minimum to make corrections on your own - which is strongly
discouraged - is to -prog drop _all - to get rid of any leftovers from the
old code. From your error message, it seems you put the corrected code into
a new .ado file, but I would not encourage you to do that.

Martin,
When I apply your correction to bsample.ado I get another error
(assuming I made the corrrection correctly).
. forvalue i=1/5{
2. clear
3. use bsampletest, clear
4. qui tab trmtgp
5. scalar prnt=0.5 // to set 50 percent
sampling, can change

6. qui count if trmtgp==0 // comparision market in beginning

7. scalar tabgp1=int(r(N)*prnt)
8. qui count if trmtgp==1 // treatment market in beginning

SRSWR already defined
(error occurred while loading bsample_correction010710.ado)
r(110);
bsample.ado Currently reads:
***
if _rc {
di as err
"resample size must not be greater than number of clusters"
exit 498
}
***
Should be:
***
if _rc {
di as err ///
"resample size must not be greater than number of clusters"
exit 498
}
***
