Betreff: st: Reorganization of pael data

Dear Statalist,

I have a panel dataset that is structured the following way:

country variable year observation
  A        var1   x   obs_A_var1_x
  A        var1   y   obs_A_var1_y
  A        var2   x   obs_A_var2_x
  A        var2   y   obs_A_var2_y
  B        var1   x   obs_B_var1_x
   .
   .
   .

But I want it to be structured as followed:

country year var1 var2
    A    x
    A    y
    B    x
    B    y

Is there a command for transposing the data like that?

Thanks in advance

Mareike
