Below I create two files, to be combined (append). If I understand you
right, a -nevemplo- value of 5 means 8-5 = 3 years of employment, so
the calculation of the corresponding -emplo- is straightforward:
clear
input emplo n
1 128
2 115
3 136
4 124
5 125
6 115
7 188
8 419
end
expand n
drop n
save emplo.dta, replace
clear
input nevemplo n
1 76
2 74
3 78
4 61
5 66
6 67
7 92
8 176
end
expand n
drop n
gen emplo = 8-nevemplo
append using emplo.dta
. tab1 emplo
-> tabulation of emplo
emplo | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
0 | 176 8.63 8.63
1 | 220 10.78 19.41
2 | 182 8.92 28.33
3 | 202 9.90 38.24
4 | 185 9.07 47.30
5 | 203 9.95 57.25
6 | 189 9.26 66.52
7 | 264 12.94 79.46
8 | 419 20.54 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 2,040 100.00
Hope this helps
