Re: st: Question using macro in loop

First forget about the specific example I used before.
Now we have variables V1, V2,..., V10.
We have another variable W contains integer values between 1 and 10
inclusively.
We also have another variable Y contain numerical values.
I want to set Vi=Y if W==i for that observation and let other Vs
unchanged for that observations.
So what can I do in this case?
Hope this is clearer now.
Thanks a lot!

Yes, you can do that but your explanation is too vague. It isThe key question I have in mind is whether we can, within a loop,
update one of the variables, and which variable to update is
according to the value taking by another variable. This value is
different across observations.
difficult to help if you don't provide a clear rule for how values
should be replaced.
