3. In Stata 11, but not previously, -label copy- is the way to copy an
existing set of value labels under another name.
But, as the following output demonstrates, -label copy- also works in
version 10.1:
. version
version 10.1
.
. capture label drop _all
.
. label define test 0 "test0" 1 "test1"
. label list _all
test:
0 test0
1 test1
.
. label copy test test_copy
. label list _all
test_copy:
0 test0
1 test1
test:
0 test0
1 test1
