Hi,
When I tried to append two datasets, I receive an error message,
"varlist not allowed". (Please see below for the stata screen.)
What does this mean?
Thank you so much.
*************** Stata Screen
*****************************************************
use "Baseline\NKdta\merge1_v.dta"
append "Followup\NKdta\merge2_v.dta"
varlist not allowed
r(101);
Elementary, see the help page for the -append command (-man append-).
Your missing "using" from you command, try...

use "Baseline\NKdta\merge1_v.dta"
append using "Followup\NKdta\merge2_v.dta"
