Would anyone know why the `i' does not show up in the \`i'\ part of my code? Stata is having trouble finding the file because it does not read the link correctly in the foreach below
Code:
. foreach k in 00 10 { 2. . clear 3. tempfile temp 4. save `temp', emptyok 5. . foreach i in AC AM AP AL CE DF ES GO MA MS MT PA PB PE PI PR RN RO RR SC SE TO RS RJ MG BA SP1 SP2 { 6. clear 7. if `k'==00 { 8. import excel using "C:\Users\Paula\Documents\Pesquisa\DADOS\IBGE\Censos\agregado_setor\20`k'\dados_brutos\`i'\Basico_`i'. > xls", firstrow 9. } 10. if `k'==10 { 11. import excel using "C:\Users\Paula\Documents\Pesquisa\DADOS\IBGE\Censos\agregado_setor\20`k'\dados_brutos\`i'\EXCEL\Basic > o_`i'.xlsx", firstrow 12. } 13. rename Cod_setor C`k'setor 14. keep C`k'setor 15. destring C`k'setor, replace 16. format C`k'setor %15.0f 17. append using `temp' 18. save `"`temp'"', replace 19. } 20. save setores`k'_temp.dta, replace 21. } (note: dataset contains 0 observations) file C:\Users\Paula\AppData\Local\Temp\ST_03000001.tmp saved file C:\Users\Paula\Documents\Pesquisa\DADOS\IBGE\Censos\agregado_setor\2000\dados_brutos\Basico_AC.xls not found r(601); end of do-file r(601);
