Hi all. I am trying to execute a .do file in Stata that I have downloaded and keep receiving this error. If anyone can offer assistance it would be greatly appreciated.

Stata's error message here is informative -- the syntax is not valid. From your screenshots, your do file is attempting to import a delimited text file. I would refer you to the output of -help import delimited- to see the proper syntax for this commnad. I imagine your command will need to look something like this:
Code:import delimited name of your variables here using "path to my file.dat", stringcols(1)
