Well, the plot thickens...turns out my exhortation to use Jann's routine is not necessary in Stata 10, in which there is indeed a function invtokens(). It did not exist in Stata 9.2, which is why Ben Jann wrote one. So correct, pre-Stata 10, use Jann's mm_invtokens(); in Stata 10, invtokens() will work.

I had to make one additional small change to get it to run:

v2=invtokens(v[cols(v)..1])

I changed to:

v2=mm_invtokens(v[cols(v)..1])

I thank you very much for the lesson, it works nicely.

I appreciate the help, and more, the chance to learn a new trick, from both
you and Maarten.
