Hi
I have a dataset where each person is represented by several cases, varying from 2 to 17. The reason why a person have more than one hit is a education variable (string) containing all educations attended in a lifetime for each person.
Now I want to examine whether men and women attend the same courses equally - Therefore I need to "collapse or spilt?" the educational variable into several (17) new (dummy)variables, so each person is only represented once.
How on earth do I manage that??
Best regards
Pete
