Dear Statalist,
I would like to define a local that contains the names of all of the
variables in my dataset. I would like to write something like this:
local varlist: _all or local varlist "*"
but these commands do not work. I can perform this using
local varlist "A1-Z100"
but I would like to do for a large number of files where the variable
names are different in each dataset and they are not sorted in
alphabetical order.
