st: Loop question

Dear Stata Listers,
after a factor analysis (pca) I'd want to create categorical variables
by using a loop. But I have some troubles. Here the code I'm using
predict P_R1 P_R2 P_R3 P_R4, regression
predict P_B1 P_B2 P_B3 P_B4, bartlett
foreach x of var P_R1-P_B4 {
pctile q_`x'_c= `x' if caso_ctrol0==0 & P_R1-P_B4 <., nq(5)
tab2 `x' caso_ctrol0
xtile `x'_q=`x', cutpoint( P_R1-P_B4_cut)
tab2 `x'_q caso_ctrol0
}
and this is the error:
variable P_B4_cut not found
in option cutpoints()
r(111)
I'm using Stata 11.1 on windows 7.
Can anyone help me. Thank you.
