st: entire contents of a value label

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

Phil Schumm enquired about getting the contents of a value label...this 
does not deal with labels for missing value codes, but it should deal 
with the rest:

use http://www.stata-press.com/data/r8/labelbook1.dta,clear
* zap one to make sure that it works with gaps
label define rs015 3 "", modify
label list rs015

forv i=`r(min)'/`r(max)' {
	local labval: label rs015 `i'
	if ("`labval'" ~= "`i'") local rs015lab "`rs015lab' | `labval'"
	}
di "`rs015lab'"
