Re: Panel Data

Well spotted. The code runs now but just has all obs = 1 so I am not sure if the if statement is sampling correctly.

EDIT: Working fine now, thanks again.

Re: Panel Data

Thanks Gareth I have looked at this before. This is what I have tried instead of @recode, which gives the error "Syntax error in "If VAR01="{%x}"" I can't seem to sample the individual cross sections to change the dummy to 1. Any suggestions would be greatly received! for %x...

Re: Panel Data

Re: Panel Data

Thanks Gareth

I then stack the data into a different sheet and the indices are identified by a small text string. The reason for my work is to see the ...
