Thanks a lot Scott. This looks like a neat solution. What I mean with
not using if referred to the if in: syntax varlist [if] not if in
general.

The solution I came up with by my own uses a nexted fourloop to get
the sample delimiter:

/* Second define subsample for pred treated */
 qui gen `foo' = 0
 foreach num of local units {
  foreach tum of local timex {
   qui replace `foo' = 1 if `pvar' == `num' & `tvar' == `tum'
  }
 }

But it's obviously less elegant than yours. I didn't know the inlist
command. Thanks a lot for your help.

I don't understand why you cannot use -if- restrictions and what timex,
timey, and timez represent; however, at least in the simpler example this
seems to accomplish the task:

program foo , rclase
  version 9.2
  syntax varlist(ts min=2 numeric) , Timex(numlist >=0 integer)
Units(numlist integer)
  qui tsset
  local tvar `r(timevar)'
  local pvar "`r(panelvar)'"
  local tx: subinstr local timex " " ",", all
  local u: subinstr local units " " ",", all
  tempvar yx foo
  gen `foo' = 1 if  inlist(`tvar',`tx') & inlist(`pvar', `u')
  qui mkmat `pvar' `tvar' `varlist' if `foo' == 1, matrix(`yx')
  matrix list `yx'
end


Which results in:

. webuse invest2,clear

. tsset com time
       panel variable:  company (strongly balanced)
        time variable:  time, 1 to 20

. foo invest market stock, timex(3 6 7 9) units(1 2 4)
(88 missing values generated)
