One $ sign too many in referring to 'ccyy'p ?

Dear StataList,
After running the code (below) I get an error message
invalid file specification r(198).
Can someone let me know how to properly specify the file?
/**global macros**/
global var_hh hhid own
global var_pp hhid dname
global datasets us04 it04
/**program make data**/
foreach ccyy in $datasets {
use $var_pp using $`ccyy'p,clear
merge m:1 hhid using $`ccyy'h,keepusing($var_hh)
if "`ccyy'" != "us04" {
append using $mydata
}
save $mydata,replace
}
end
Best regards, Marko
