Use large data sets automatically [STB-22: dm21] --------------------------------- ^bringin^ filename [ { ^vars^ | ^obs^ } ] ^use^s a data set, resetting ^maxvar^ and ^maxobs^ if necessary. ^bringin^ uses ^bmemsize^ to select an appropriate memory partition. If the ^vars^ keyword is specified, ^bringin^ resets the memory partition to maximize the number of variables that can be added after ^filename^ is loaded. If the ^obs^ keyword is specified, ^bringin^ maximizes the number of observations that can be added. If neither keyword is specified, ^bringin^ strikes a balance between the number of variables and the number of observations that can be added. TECHNICAL NOTE: ^bringin^ calls ^bmemsize^, a program that works only with Intercooled Stata. If you are not using Intercooled Stata, change ^bmemsize^ to ^memsize^ in ^bringin.ado^.
