Thank you Martin!!!

Sorry, I didn't understand again!
I have 72914 observations so, do you mean after "input str20 num" to
write the variable name?

I can not write 72914 observations!!

I would like more details pleaseeee!!!!

Many thanks :)

*** I didn't thought the -li- as the stata command -list- that time :(

Yours,
Chrysa
