Subject: st: append multiple data sets
I'm trying to append multiple datasets, but "append using" only adds two
datasets at a time. I tried the following program to append "timc1.dta",
"timc2.dta", "timc3.dta"... in one step, but it only appends two datasets.
********************************
program define apx
local i = 1
while `i'<=10 {
use timc`i', clear
append using timc`i'
local i = `i' + 1
}
end
apx
********************************
I'll appreciate any suggestions on how to accomplish this task.
