I have a data set with about 600 variables and all are in upper case. Is
there a simple way to make the case lower?
I played with ren ARM lower("ARM") that didn't work. I suspect I'm
missing something very obvious. What I'd eventually like to do is
something like
foreach v of varlist A-Z{
ren `v' lower(`v')
}
but that won't work.
findit renvars
