Kill the blank in -missing ()-. Has to be -missing()-. Stata does not always mind blanks, as recently discussed on this list, but here it does. Also, the code around the -replace- line is only for illustration purposes, you do not need it for your particular case...

Dear Martin,
i typed -set obs 1-,
it came out -obs must be between 28032 and 231975
r(198);- in red,
typed -gen public_medical_insurance_no=""-,
it came out -public_medical_insurance_no already defined
r(110);-
typed -replace public_medical_insurance_no="null" if missing ( public_medical_insurance_no)-
it came out -missing not found
r(111);-
Best wishes
Lydia
