Betreff: st: Drop unused value labels

Dear All,

I am wondering whether it is possible to remove all unused value labels 
(i.e. all value labels that are not mapped to a variable) from a dataset 
without having to specify each label name. Would anyone know whether 
there is a way to do that in official stata, or whether a user-written 
program exists?

Thanks in advance for your help, regards,

Elmar
