Subject   st: Identifying visits with 1 time period of an event
Date   Mon, 17 Feb 2014 20:23:21 +0000

I have longitudinal data on visits to a clinic during which a procedure sometimes occurs.

I want to mark follow-up visits if the procedure occurred and mark the visits within 1 time period of the procedure, as in the last two variables here.

end

I have struggled with _n and _N but cannot get the follow to start after the event.

Thanks,

Paul
