I think you need
forvalues i = 3 7 8{
 arg
}
but you will also want to test your argument syntax separately to be
sure there's nothing gone astray there.

Subject: st: Forvalues Problem
I am trying to perform a loop for the values 3, 7 and 8. I keep getting
the invalid syntax error message. Can anyone offer a solution?
forvalues i = 3 7/ 8 {
	gen byte d`i' = strmatch(diag,"*D`i'*")
}
