Hello Laura, to compare two variables side-by-side type the following command: browse var1 var2 For example: sysuse auto browse price weight Question to StataCorp: Would it be possible to make -browse- sensitive to order of the variables in the varlist? So that "browse price weight" and "browse weight price" work differently? Also "browse price weight *" to push the specified variables to the first columns, then the rest of the variables.
