Hello - Is it possible to obtain an ordered directory of files from
within Stata? For example in Windows using a command prompt, one can
type
dir *.dta /o:d
to get a listing of files in order of modification date.
Apparently the -dir- comand in Stata does not take any sort options.
Also, typing
!dir *.dta /o:d
is useless because the output immediately disappears from the screen.
Any other suggestions to accomplish this within Stata?
Thanks
Al Feiveson
