variable names: v9 v10 v11 v12 v13 v14 ........ ..... v200
Observation 1 TAN TAN TAL TAN CAN TLM
Observation 2 4108 4103 4108 5214 1235 1108
Each of these numbers in the second row of observations represents a particular variable code. What I want is to prefix each of these numbers with the text in the first row of observation e.g. TAN4108 TAN4103 CAN1235 TLM1108, etc. After that, I want to rename my existing variables (v9,v10,v11,...-v126) to these newly created variables.
I hope my explanation of the problem is clear. Does somebody have a solution please?
Many thanks
Dev
