Hey,

I am new to Stata, so I may be wrong, but I think you could try downloading
the "egenmore" package. 
I know the function " ntos(numvar) , from(numlist) to(list of string
values)" would allow you to go from "-2", "-1" etc. to "strongly disagree,
disagree" etc. 
You should look at the package in detail, and hopefully you'll find a
function that allows you to do the reverse!

Good luck!
