st: merging panel datasets

["sarah smith" <sarah22209@hotmail.com>]

Hi;

I am trying to merge 2 panel datasets. But I want to use more than one 
variable, name and lastname year as merging criteria. I tried

merge name lastname year using x

but this does not seem to work. I will be very happy if you can help me.

Thanks,
S
