Hi Stata users
I now have three days of experience with Stata and I really like the program so far. I have now run into a problem that I can't figure out how to solve, and I'm hoping one of you can help me.
I am trying to combine "foreach" and "if" to define a local value using the below code.
I get the error: "num not found"
I cant figure if I´m wrong on "foreach" or "if" or both.
Can you see what I am doing wrong? Or help me find an alternative solution?
Thank you for reading this.

Code:
foreach num of numlist 1/5 {
if num == 1 local Jname Squat
if num == 2 local Jname Squat_Jumps
if num == 3 local Jname Drop
if num == 4 local Jname Drop_Vertical_Jump
if num == 5 local Jname Static_Broad_Jump
use "`Jname'.dta"
.......
