Hi Svend,
It works just fine!
When it comes to problem solving in STATA, I seem to lack the necessary
foresight. Hopefully with time I will improve my respective abilities...
Thankyou very much,
Sascha

Sascha,
No, it is not ridiculous - but it is solvable.
Each pair of observations must have an unique id,
and if your data are as regular as claimed,
you can create the id by:
generate id=int((_n+1.1)/2)
Adding 1.1 instead of 1 makes sure that rounding
errors don't mess things up. It goes like this:
clear
input group var strategy
1 11 0
1 12 1
1 13 0
1 14 1
2 15 0
2 16 1
end
generate id=int((_n+1.1)/2)
reshape wide var , i(id group) j(strategy)
list
Isn't that what you wanted?
Svend
