st: how to select all the numerical variable

["Martin Wang" <zwang215@gmail.com>]

Dear Statalist,

Can I ask a question? Is there any way that I can select all the numerical variable in a dataset? For example, I want to use:
for var equity net_income cash_fixinv : replace X=. if X==0.0001 

But I have a lot of numerical variables like equity, net_income... but I don't want to list all of them. Is there any way to get around of this?

Many thanks in advance!

Martin
