This is probably a question for Kit Baum, although I'm sure others could 
handle it. I'm trying to duplicate his efficient (and greatly 
appreciated) code found in "/Stata tip 88: Efficiently evaluating 
elasticities with the margins command"/, The Stata Journal (2010), 10, 
Number 2, pp. 309–312 . When I run this code
// calculate elasticities at deciles over full sample:
forvalues i=10(10)90 {
quietly margins, eyex(_all) at((p`i´) _all)
local rn "`rn´ p`i´"
matrix nu = nullmat(nu) \ r(b)
}
matrix rownames nu = `rn´
matrix list nu, format(%6.3f) ti("Elasticities")
I receive the following error "too few quotes" right after }
What am I missing?
Mike
