st: RE: Checkvar updated on SSC
I've tried this for an hour or so and it's not up yet. I think I recall
that Kit was going to be out of town for a while. Would you (Phil)
remind us again when it is available. Thanks.

Subject: st: Checkvar updated on SSC
Thanks to Kit Baum, -checkvar- has been updated on the SSC archive. I've
added "if" and "in" options.
The -checkvar- command is intended to assist in checking a created
variable. It lists each value of the created variable and all
combinations of the component variables that were used to create it.
For those working with survey data, -checkvar- can display the pattern
of responses through a complex set of skip and filter questions. This is
useful when testing a new CAPI questionnaire as well as for cleaning and
analyzing survey data.
The -checkvar- command is modeled on the "list" option in SAS proc freq.
