Dear Prof. Pisati,

I am really sorry, but I still do not fully understand the -by()- option.
-label()- option only allows one variable in bracket, -by()- is to group
labels, but I do not want to group them. I have two variables "ename" and
"GDP" to be labeled, if I write -label(label(ename) label(GDP))-, it is
wrong. If I write -label(label(ename) by(GDP))-, it shows ename only, no GDP
value added on the map.  From definition of -by()-, it should be possible to
add more than one labels. But I do not know how to add another label
correctly. Could you please give me some suggestion?

Best Regards,
Lynn Lee

Dear Lynn,
yes, it's possible, you can plot as many different labels as you like using
suboption -by()- of option -label()-. See the -spmap- help file for exact
syntax and details.
Best wishes,
Maurizio
