Let`s bear in mind that the original request was for variables "...to
indicate how may days the patient was there in the hospital or centre in a
month in a particular year"...

Betreff: st: RE: Creating number of days per month

Rajaram, an easy way is to transfer the data into a Filemaker Pro database.
Then save the dates as
numbers and subtract variable 2 from variable 1. It will give you a clean
number of days each
patient was in the facility. Then that data can be transferred back into
Stata via Excel.
