["Anna H. Joo" <ajoo@fas.harvard.edu>]

hi,
i am using stata version 7 and am trying to extract data from a large
survey using the infile command.  those variables whose columns exceed a
certain number (8947) are 'not allowed' apparently --can someone please
tell me how i might correct this?  many thanks in advance.
