When I type,

The result window of stata shows as follows,

     +---------------------------------------------+
     |      code   indname   x   y   z   a   b   c |
     |---------------------------------------------|

  2. | 600811.SH    关国亮   9   7   1   .         |

However, in fact my data is as follows,

     +---------------------------------------------+
     |      code   indname   x   y   z   a   b   c |
     |---------------------------------------------|
  1. | 000877.SZ    徐永平   .   .   .   .   .   . |
  2. | 600811.SH    关国亮   9   7   1   .   .   . |

Namely, there is something wrong with variable c.
Could anyone tell me why?

Yes:  Excel.

This comes up periodically on the List.  For a workaround, see
