There is also a May 14,2004 update to the ado-files that includes several 
enhancements/fixes that have been discussed on the list lately.  Two that I 
noticed:

* The -by- parameter is now optional with -adjust-

* -recode- had bizarre behavior when working with the extended missing 
values, e.g. -recode x (.a/.z = 99)- resulted in all nonmissing values 
getting recoded to 99 while the missing values were left unchanged.  This 
has been fixed.

The executable and the ado-files take a while to download!  But it looks 
like there are a lot of good changes.
