st: -univar-, condition on a string variable and Stata 11

Dear All:
I have a strange phenomenon with -univar- (downloadable from ssc).
I run the following command and get an error message
univar time_lag if decision_editoriale!="Reject"
Reject not found
r(111);
decision_editoriale is a string variable.
I am almost sure that I used this command many times with Stata 10 without any problem.
When I use -summarize-, I have no problem.
. su time_lag if decision_editoriale!="Reject"
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
time_lag | 20 80.65 23.74708 42 137
Would you have any idea?
Best regards
Herve Stolowy
