(I am now using a different email address, on your remark)
The problem is solved.
First, thank you for your concern.
Second,
* Could you explain what was the problem so that I can learn?
Why a single quotes is the label cause a problem? ��
* Do you think if Stata was updated I would not have the problem?
* Could you explain what you mean by "� a string variable, or is it�
labeled?"?
If a variable is a string variable, what the label is supposed to be?
Thanks once again.
