Sorry I sent it prematurely.
Thank you Eric an Martin
I still need some help. One example of a list looks like this:
Norrköping for Norrköping
Nässjö for Nässjö
Söderköping for Söderköping
Should I write
replace var1 = subinstr(var1, "ö", "`=char(246)'", .)
replace var1 = subinstr(var1, "ä", "`=char(228))'",.)
Correct?
Can I include the content of all variables, all variable names and all
labels in one commandline?
Greetings
Roland
