Professor Baum, thank you very much for your help.
Your example worked perfectly. I am now very motivated to learn mata and adapt your sequence to my case (using existing variables in different datasets rather than creating new ones) and create an ado file. It will take a while, but it will definitely worth it.
In debt,
