Dear all,
I hope I am just missing the obvious, but please help me why the code
below does not parse the third argument after a tokenize. I am pretty
sure I am doing standard things here. The relevant part of the trace
follows.
- tokenize `varlist'
= tokenize y t psc
- error ("`4'"!="" & "`psc'"!="")
= error (""!="" & "psc"!="")
- local y `1'
= local y y
- local w `2'
= local w t
- local x `3’
- ereturn clear
Thanks,
Laszlo
