Sounds the same question as Jennifer Earl
on 1 June. She was also into code fantasies.
On your last detail, you can do this without anyone writing
new code:
separate section, by(course)
codebook `r(varlist)'
Otherwise please consult the archives for answers to Jennifer's

I didn't see Scott's message at first in a string of spams).
