How can i do?
You do not say whether -Var01- is numeric or string. However, numeric
variables can be converted to string using the -string()- function, strings
can be converted to numeric using the -real()- function, and strings can be
split into substrings using the -substr()- function. In Stata, type -whelp
functions- to find more about functions.
