read -help levelsof- and -help matrix rownames- first, but you may
need something from -help extended_fcn- to process the list of
values...
sysuse auto, clear
levelsof make, local(m)
mat j=J(74,1,0)
local nodot: subinstr loc m "." "", all
mat rownames j = `nodot'
mat li j
local nospace: subinstr loc nodot " " "", all
local respace: subinstr loc nospace "'`" "' `", all
mat rownames j = `respace'
mat li j
