Ignoring the rest of the problem, look at what a nice informative
error message you got--why are you specifying the dates in the
tlabel() option as strings, rather than numbers? You can get the
corresponding numbers easily enough:
. di mdy(9,1,1992)
11932
or you can figure them out on the fly:
. twoway (tsline pct) (scatter pct date, ms(Oh)), tlabel(`=mdy(9,1,1992)',`etc')
and you can figure out the whole set of dates you actually have with
the -levels- or -levelsof- command, and include the values.
. levelsof date, local(alldates)
. twoway (tsline pct) (scatter pct date, ms(Oh)), tlabel(`alldates')
