The source of inlist2 is in the SSC repository: http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/i/inlist2.ado

I have tried inlist2 in another problem but it seems to keep only the last string written in the parenthesis with the following syntax. How can I amend? Thanks.

inlist2 country, val( Australia , Austria , Belgium , Canada , Chile , China,P.R.: Mainland , Colombia , Czech Republic , Denmark , Estonia , Euro , Finland , France , Germany , Greece , Hungary , Iceland , Indonesia , Ireland , Israel , Italy , Japan , Korea , Latvia , Luxemburg , Mexico , Netherlands , New Zealand , Norway , Poland , Poland , Russia , Slovak Republic , Slovenia , South Africa , Spain , Sweden , Switzerland , United Kingdom , United States )
keep if inlist2==1

Sorry for the late answer, didn't get the notification. It probably has to do with the spaces, If you send me over an example via email I am happy to check. Email is in the help file.
