I'm unable to interpret this error in stata -


after open dataset in stata, code runs automatically in backend.

use "c:\users\vxk152430\desktop\stata_vxk152430\hw2\capm4.dta", clear 

but when try describe typing:

des capm4 

i following error.

variable capm4 not found r(111); 

please help.

thanks.

des (and not des, stata case-sensitive) needs optional list of variable names, can omitted if want describe all of variables. since name of dataset not 1 of variables, stata complains.

here's reproducible example demonstrating issue:

sysuse auto, clear des price des des auto 

you can diagnose went wrong clicking on numeric error code, give more info short error message stata printed. can learn or command looking @ helpfile this:

help des
