error with join

[sebastien-willis]

The command -join- appears to fail with the error message 3598 when the master dataset is a tempfile. See reproducible example below. I am running Stata 14.0 on mac OS X 10.13.6.

sysuse auto , clear
generate id = _n
preserve
keep id make price mpg
tempfile tmp
save "tmp'" restore keep id foreign join , into("tmp'") by(id)

Should be fixed; code was not dealing correctly with the quotes around tmp.

Let me know if it works on your side.

Best,

I will need to wait for the version of ftools to be updated on the server I'm using, but locally it seems to work fine now, thanks very much.

Great!
