st: rename variables with label values

[daphna bassok <dbassok@stanford.edu>]

Hi-

I have a strange data cleaning question and was hoping someone would 
have a solution.

Is it possible to rename a list of variables with their label value 
(meaning replace the variable name with the variable label)?  My 
labels identify the item numbers on a particular survey (but my 
actual variable names are not too informative). I am looking for a 
command like renvars, that will allow me quickly rename the variable, 
but so far I have not been able to find something.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
Daphna
