All,

I have a large dataset of observations in which individuals (~40,000 ID codes) were evaluated multiple times (5-10 visit numbers per individual) on over 70 variables. However, the data has been arranged so that each visit number is an observation, instead of each individual ID code as an observation. I need to merge this file with another file sorted by individual ID codes. How do I rearrange this data so that it is arranged by ID codes with consecutive follow up visits? Thanks
