Hi STATA experts,
I am using foreach to run a loop for a list of string variables. The command runs but returned an error message at the end, any advice on how to correct the command is highly appreciated (variable obstcomp* include obstcomp1 to obstcomp16, which store the disease code consisted of one letter and numbers):
foreach var of varlist obstcomp*{
replace hypertension=1 if `var'=="O11" | `var'=="O12" | `var'=="O120"
> | `var'=="O121" | `var'=="O122" | `var'=="O13" | `var'=="O14" | `var'=="O140" | `var'==
> "O141" | `var'=="O142" | `var'=="O149" | `var'=="O15" | `var'=="O150" | `var'=="O151" |
> `var'=="O152" | `var'=="O159" | `var'=="O16"
}

Thank you very much in advance.
