The difference between:

*************
sysuse auto, clear
di in r mpg
di in r "mpg"
*************

makes your error clear, I think...

Hi listers,

Below I try to post results to a dataset. Everything works fine but the
variable prep only contain 0´s. I had hoped to find the variable names
saba_L6, saba_L12, saba_L18, laba_L6, laba_L12, laba_L18 in it.

Anyone know what´s wrong with my syntax?

postfile `resul'  str15 prep   mean lb ub    ///
                using H:\ANAL\prevalens.dta , replace 	
						
foreach i in 6 12 18 {
   foreach X of varlist   saba_L`i'  laba_L`i'  {
