In the data set I have a string variable with the names of several people. However, I want to look at the relationship across each individual, so I am trying to separate the names.
What I have done: expanded the observations based on how many individuals are in each observation's string variable. Labeled the duplicate observations 1, 2, 3, etc.
What I need now, is a command that will take the number in my duplicates and take the corresponding individual's name with respect to its position in the string variable, separated by a comma.
Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks,
Conor
