Error r100 ) required

[Delal Aslan]

Hi there,

I am getting the error r(100) with the note ") required" when I run this code to produce a coefficient plot from regressions previously run as a loop:

coefplot  (lang_bi_SF4001_help, aseq("`: var label SF4001_help'") ///
\ lang_bi_SF4002_help, aseq("`: var label SF4002_help'") ///

Note I have successfully run this exact code before, I have only changed the variables (previously var, now var_help, so SF4001 is now SF4001_help).

Anyone know where the issue lies?

Thanks!

i do not use -coefplot- so there a lot of your code that I don't understand; however, looking at the code line-by-line, I see the following line:

(lang_mul_SF4001_help, aseq("`: var label SF4001_help'") ///

which appears to be missing a close parens (and I don't see anything later that makes up for it)

Thanks for the answer, the corresponding parenthesis is in this line:

\ lang_mul_SF4802_help, aseq("`: var label SF4802_help'") label(multivariate)) ///

Here is a code in the same do file that works, which I believe to be the same as the one returning the error but I may be missing something:

coefplot  (lang_bi_SF3901, aseq("`: var label SF3901'") ///
         \ lang_bi_SF3902, aseq("`: var label SF3902'") ///
         \ lang_bi_SF3903, aseq("`: var label SF3903'") ///
         \ lang_bi_SF4301, aseq("`: var label SF4301'") ///
         \ lang_bi_SF4302, aseq("`: var label SF4302'") ///
         \ lang_bi_SF4303, aseq("`: var label SF4303'") label(bivariate))  ///
          (lang_mul_SF3901, aseq("`: var label SF3901'") ///

    swapnames scheme(plotplain) xline(0) ///

    coeflabels(,wrap(35) labsize(vsmall)) ///
    note("Multivariate Model includes controls for Migration Background, Gender, Parental Education and all Schooltype-Federal State combinations", size(tiny)) ///
    name(coefp_langpol_q39_q43, replace)

Thanks in advance for any help!

What do the labels look like?

di `"`: var label SF4001_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4002_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4003_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4004_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4005_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4006_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4007_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4008_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4009_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4010_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4801_help'"'
di `"`: var label SF4802_help'"'

Thanks so much, that was it! A couple of the variables' labels had a closed parenthesis missing which I was unaware of. This has made my life easier, thanks!
