Dear Statalisters:
I have, say, variables var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 varcompare . I want to
compare var1 var2 var3 var4 var5, to choose the one with the greatest
rank. The _name_ of the vari with the greater rank should then be the
string "value" of varcompare for each individual.
Is there a command for this?
Thanks,
Jose Maria
