Your expansion of the macro outfile_reg probably contains spaces plus the word 'and'. You probably need to use compound double quotes (q.v.) or use a directory without embedded spaces in its name on your machine.

Could anyone let me know what is wrong with the following do. file to
give me an invalid 'and' r(198).


/*foreach x of varlist $LHS {;
