I have an integer variable that I would like to collapse into a dichotomous variable. Using the following statement: .gen cholcat = cond(chol,0,1,9) produces the same output as: .gen cholcat = cond(chol,0,1) The first statement continues to recode "missings" as 1, not 9. In order to capture the missings appropriately, I have to follow each -cond()- statement with a -replace- command. Am I using the -cond()- function appropriately? Thanks, paul visintainer
