Re: st: Using tab command on strings, exceeding 65,536 limit
-codebook- will tell you how many unique values Stata thinks there are
(or you could download -unique- via -findit-)
the max number of rows for tabulate depends on your version of Stata;
see -help limits-

Hello,
I am using Stata 9 and want to get a simple tabulation by city. My file
consists of over 207,000 rows. When I type in "tab city" I get returned an
error R134 that warns me that I cannot encode more than 65,536 unique
values. When I do a select distinct sql statement in my Access table on
the same field there are only 3046 unique values.
Any suggested work-arounds would be helpful.
Thanks,
Jeff
