| Subject | st: How to save and use the output of stata command -list- |
| Date | Wed, 21 Aug 2013 21:46:00 +0000 |
Dear Statalist, I want to save and subsequently use the output that I find from the command -list-. Can anyone tell how to do that in stata? Let me give an example to further clarify. I have a data set like the following: IDnumber State NewID 1 Alabama . 2 Alaska . .. .... ... .. .... ... .. .... ... 52 Wyoming . If I input -list IDnumber if State=="Wyoming"-, it returns '52'. Now I want to fill the first cell of the variable NewID by this output. How can I write code for that? Thanks in advance.
