Program issue with returning a table and retaining [`m'] in passed arg

[L Rainen]

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to return a pargraph and table from a STATA program. There is already an open putdocx file avaiable for it to go into. Ideally, it can just append it to the open putdocx file as if all the code were 'repeated' multiple times in the stata do file.... which is what I am trying to avoid having to do. Some possibilities... (1) can you return a table? (2) can I just have it add it to the open docx document without returning anything? (3) do I have to pass it the open docx somehow? (4) Or what is a better approach? Thanks in advance!

capture program drop fulltable
program fulltable, rclass
    args num myvar myheader myif

    putdocx paragraph, halign(left)
    putdocx text ("`myheader'"), bold underline font(Calibri,12) linebreak(2)    

    putdocx table t`num'=(`rows',`cols'), headerrow(1) layout(autofitcontents)
    * A BUNCH OF CODE WHICH ADDS ROW TO TABLE *
    
    return local row `row'    
end

As an aside, I also can't figure out how to pass this in as the `myif' in the args of the program to ensure it eventually uses (if len_start1[`m'] != 10) as it currently keeps dropping the `m' part entirely and I'm left with (if len_start1[] != 10) ...which fails.

local tif2 = `" "if len_start1[\`m\'] != 10" "'

Sorted out the 'last' bit to get `m' to display correctly...but it still results in an error when trying to use it:

local tif2 `" "if (len_start1[`"`"m"'"'] != 10)" "'

ERROR MESSAGE WHEN TRY TO USE:
= if (len_start1[ {
too few ')' or ']'
