st: RE: SImple question on "describe"
A possible solution might use the -descsave- package, downloadable from
SSC using the -ssc- command. The -descsave- package creates an output
dataset (or resultsset) with 1 observation per variable and data on
their names and/or labels and/or other attributes (optionally including
characteristics). This resultsset can be used to make tables, possibly
after being combined with other resultssets from other Stata commands.
I hope this helps.
Best wishes

Subject: st: SImple question on "describe"
Hi,
I've checked the user's guide, programming and the
reference guide. I want to use describe and only want
the variable name and variable label - not the other
information. Also, when I use a table command - I
would like to see BOTH the variable name and the
variable label - is this possible?
Thanks,
Buddy
