Can you show us the contents of the local macro? Is -mylabels-
producing a crazy macro or -kdensity- being awkward? (I can't
experiment with Stata right now.)

I am having trouble getting small values to align correctly when using
the comma format and Nicholas Cox's -mylabels-. The first kernel
density plot below looks great, but when I try to format the axis
labels, the numbers on the left drift too far to the right.
sysuse auto, clear
replace price = price/100 if price <5000
gen lnp=ln(price)
mylabels 1 300 6000 18000, myscale(ln(@)) local(labels)
kdensity lnp, xlabel(`labels')
mylabels 1 300 6000 18000, myscale(ln(@)) local(labels) format(%6.0fc)
kdensity lnp, xlabel(`labels')
