Hello everyone,
again me...
I  think there is something wrong with my data or my stata... It�s really  
unbelievable.

I have 10032 observations.
Like 200 of them have  announced to be working more than 90 Hours per Week. 
(There are also 3000  missing values). I can see that doing "tab HoursPWeek".

The strange  thing, is that if I call another variable, for example:
"tab name if  HoursPWeek > 90", then the answer is about 3000 observations. 
How can  that be?

Another strange thing:
If I say "tab name" if  HoursPWeek==99.9 there are "no observations" although 
I can clearly see in the  data, there are some. 

Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks,  
Markus.
