Dear Nick,
thanks a lot for yoou, as ever useful hint: it works perfectly.
Actually I meant running product, without taking a look at the dictionary: I
am feeling a bit gloomy 'cause my English seems worse than my Stata
knowlegde!
Many thanks again and Kind Regards,
Carlo

Oggetto: Re: st: How to perform a productory
I Googled "productory" and didn't find anything recognisable.
Perhaps you want a running product.
gen runningproduct = exp(sum(log(K_1)))
Alternatively, if you ask in Italian, somebody should
recognise what you want. There is no "English only" rule.

I have a variable including 30 obs (please see beneath. I would like to
calculate a productory but I have neither found out a Stata 9/2 useful
in-built function nor a helpful FAQ (or it seems so).
