for a flavor of what it should look like (make sure there is no las.do in
your current directory before running the code...). Also note that -ssc d
descsave- is extremely convenient for such purposes.

Subject: st: Importing variable and value labels from txt file
Dear Statalisters,
I would like to know whether, for an active dataset, Stata is able to
attach value and/or variable labels from an existing txt file. In that
case, how should that text file be structured and which Stata commands
should be used?
Thanks.
Guillermo
