Subject   st: Impute an average in a stacked dataset

I have a stacked dataset with missing data

Yr   case     x
2004  1                   3
2005  1                  3
2006  1       4
2007  1       6
2004  2       4
2006  2       5
2007  2       7

I want to impute the value in 2005 for case 2 as the average between the value in 2004 and 2006 if and only if data exists in those years.

On another note, it would be nice to run a cross-year correlation, but I can't figure that out either. How do the values in 2004 correlate with the values in 2008?

Thanks for any help in advance!
