Batch processing is the execution of a series of programs on a
computer without manual intervention. You want batch with a manual
intervention, which is hard to comprehend.
Presumably, you somehow want to pass these paremeters to mylog.do. One
way to accomplish this would be to write a Stata command that takes
firm and date as parameters. Why doesn't that work?
