Dear all,
Is there a bug in -string()- or I'm doing something
wrong. For example I have the following data:
a1
1. 12345678
2. 12345679
3. 12345678
4. 12345678
5. 12345679
. gen y=string( a1,"%16")
(5 missing values generated)
. cl a1 y
a1 y
1. 12345678
2. 12345679
3. 12345678
4. 12345678
5. 12345679
6. 12345678
7. 12345679
8. 12345678
9. 12345678
10. 12345678
What I'm doing wrong? -y- is missing everywhere.
Thanks,
Ricardo.
