The original problem was this:
================
i've just modified an ado file in notepad to suit my needs and have
tried to
save it with a different name in my c:\ado\personal. this modified ado
file
form one of the line in a do file that i have created. when i try to
run the
do-file however, i keep getting "unrecognized command" r(199) error.
the do
file runs fine using the original ado file though.
when i saved the file in the notepad, i save as filename.ado and file
type
as all file. i noticed though that it is saved as a txt file and the
icon
appears different from the other official ado files.
can listers tell me how to save it this ado hack that i did so that i
can
make use of it? manual said to store it in a file ending in .ado but i
must
have missing something here. thanks for the help.
=================
Now that you appear to have sorted out the operating
system problem, I suspect the answer lies in what
you did to the .ado file, which is difficult to
guess, except that you must have within, say,
barleywater.ado
a definition which is either
program define barleywater
or
program barleywater
so that <whatever>.ado defines program -whatever-.
If this doesn't help, do show us the .ado in question.
