Oh, yes, rollreg from SSC.

OK. So I have to get rid off the gaps. I have generated a new variable:
by cusip: generate datecontrol=datemonthly[_n]-datemonthly[_n-1]

If the variable is larger than 1 there is a gap in the monthly time series. Instead of dropping a cusip completely if there is datecontrol>1, I would like to keep either the observations befor or after the gap depending on the length of the time series without a datecontrol>1. The longer the better. 

How do I have to proceed or is there a more elegant way?

Kind regards, Fabian
