Dear all,
can anyone point me how can I drop all observations belonging to
"r" based on "winner" value? I meant, I don't wish to drop only
observations where winner values is 1, but
given I got a winner in "r==a" I want drop all observations of this group.
I tried with no success:   bysort r: drop if winner==1

//replication

clear
input str2 r byte(w v1 v2 winner)
 "a" .5 1 2  .
 "a" .1 2 3  .
 "a" .9 3 2  1
 "a" .9 3 4  1
 "a" .2 4 5  .
 "a" .3 5 1  .
 "b" .4 1 2  .
 "b" .1 2 3  .
 "b" .7 3 4  .
 "b" .8 4 1  .
 "b" .8 4 5  .
 "b" .9 5 1  .
end

Thanks,
Daniel
