Yes, of course:
clear
input value level str3 question
2.05 2 q1
3.01 2 q1
0.75 2 q1
1.99 3 q2
1.86 3 q2
0.44 3 q2
1.21 4 q3
4.22 4 q3
2.55 4 q3
end
So the questions should be transferred to new variable q1, q2 and so on,
keeping the value and level information tne these two variables.

Hello Stata user,
I have a dataset with 3 variables: "value" with numeric numbers, "level"
with numeric levels from 1 to 10 and "question" with the short text of the
questions (q1, q2...). Now I want to bring all the questions in seperate
columns with the "value" they have in the variable "value" coressponding to
the level. Using reshape I always get error messages in some way, so hope
there is an easy answer.
Best
Nick
