Also see -usesome- (SSC), that builds on Maarten's suggestion.

Dear Statalist,

I am using Stata 13 IC and have attempted to open a file that has
probably 2047 variables and
I am getting the following message

*****/////
no room to add more variables
An attempt was made to add a variable that would    have resulted in
 more    than    2048    or    2047    variables    (Stata    reserves
   one    variable    for    its    own    use).
You have the following alternatives:

1.  Drop some variables; see help drop.

2.  If you are using Stata/SE, increase maxvar;    see help maxvar.
r(900);

***////////////

I would like to open the file so that I can drop the variables I don't
need. Any help/advise would be appreciated.
