Hi Raphael,

If I understand you right, e.g

by id count, sort: gen N=_N
drop if count==0 & N>=3

would help.

Greetings,
Alex

I have longitudinal data with "id" as unique identifier, "timevar" as
the time variable and an outcome variable I call "count." The timevar
contains the elapsed time in minutes. I would like to exclude all
zeros where there are 3 or more consecutive zeros for each person. Can
anyone help?

id  timevar count
1    1         56
1    2         2
1    3         0
1    4         0
1    5         0
1    6         0
1    7         5
1    8         0
1    9         0
2    1         230
2    2         0
