Dear All,
I tried to use the commands: egen, sum on each occasion, but with no success.
How best could I get the sum of the variables i.e., X1+X2+...+Xn.
I would appreciate your feedback.
. egen ENG2006_11= sum(EN_WAL_births_2006, EN_WAL_births_2011, EN_WAL_births_2010, EN_WAL_births_2009, EN_WAL_births_2008, EN_WAL_births_2007) -- r(198);
. gen ENG2006_11= sum(EN_WAL_births_2006 EN_WAL_births_2011 EN_WAL_births_2010 EN_WAL_births_2009 EN_WAL_births_2008 EN_WAL_births_2007) -- r(198);
Kind regards
Panos
