Sorry I sent it prematurely. Thank you Eric an Martin I still need some help. One example of a list looks like this: Norrköping for Norrköping Nässjö for Nässjö Söderköping for Söderköping Should I write replace var1 = subinstr(var1, "ö", "`=char(246)'", .) replace var1 = subinstr(var1, "ä", "`=char(228))'",.) Correct? Can I include the content of all variables, all variable names and all labels in one commandline?
