Thanks for your detailed discussion about mata vs. ado
files. Very helpful. I was wondering, though, if you
could provide a manual reference or more of a
description of the syntax in your suggested solution
above. In particular, I'm wondering what the " + key1
+ " is doing exactly. I haven't run across that
option in the manual, and it's hard to search the help
for something that's just quotes and plus signs. I
feel like it could be a very useful function if I
could figure out how it works.
Thanks,
Matissa
