A quick question related to dropping variables: I would like to drop a
variable when a certain condition is met (I'm using loops to check
whether a variable is not empty for each year of observation). AFAIK, -
drop- and -keep- only refer to observations if being used
conditionally, e.g. I cannot use "drop THISVAR if mean_THISVAR<1".
So, how can I drop a variable when a certain condition is met?
