============
This is extremely useful code. Is there a way of modifying this code to
fill
in data by month as opposed to every day? Maybe it is intuitive enough
to
know the difference between daily and monthly values? For example
Before:
Month Value
January 0
March 4
April 2
June 3
After:
Month Value
January 0
Feb .
March 4
April 2
May .
June 3
=============
Subsequent postings have not, so far as I can see, added any information
on Ariel's set-up.
Is -Month- a Stata date variable or not? Is it numeric (with what range
of values and what format) or string (ditto)?
Is this a panel dataset?
Show us the result of e.g. -describe- and -summarize- on these
variables.

I copied and pasted your code directly into the do-file editor, without
any
changes. I am running version 10.1 and everything is current.
