Thanks to Kit Baum, a little utility -reorder- is now on SSC.
This is in answer to a question asked by Susan Hailpern
at the Boston users' meeting last week.
-reorder- changes the order of the variables in the current dataset.
-reorder- used in this way resembles -order-, except that the varlist
specified is saved in a characteristic. -reorder, previous- changes
the order of the variables to the order previously
set with -reorder-. This applies not only in the current session, but
also in subsequent sessions - so long as the dataset, including the
characteristic, is saved using -save, replace-.
