Thank you! I assumed it was something wrong with the K`var', L`var' part.
I used newlist, and the loop ran.

Hello statalist,
I am trying to add value labels to multiple variables at the same time, but
am having no success.
The following does not work but hopefully illustrates what I want to do:
foreach var of list I872 I873 I874 I875 I835 I842 I837 I844 I911 I912 {
lab val K`var' `var'
lab val L`var' `var'
}
