Barbara Hofmann,
You want to restructure a dataset in wide format to long format. It goes
like this, using -reshape-:
----------------------------------
clear
input var1 v1991 v1992 v1993
15 8.58 8.76 9.53
16 1.01 .91 .9
17 .89 .75 .72
18 .39 .3 .3
19 .28 .23 .16
20 .52 .5 .6
21 .65 .56 .58
22 .89 1.07 .9
end
reshape long v , i(var1) j(year)
sort year var1
list
------------------------------------
Hope this helps
Svend
