| Date | Thu, 7 Nov 2013 01:10:05 +0000 |
Hi Statalist, In my do file, I'm putting a line break (///) for my local macro but I got a syntax error at the line break. local ctlist2 ""Composite Index" "Life Expectancy" "Injury Death" "Cancer Death" "Spent 30%+ Income on Rent" /// "Preventable Hospitalization" "Poor or Fair Health" "Obese" "Current Smoker"" Is there a way to avoid this error? Thanks. Lin * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
