Or rather, to create a variable, as your subject line indicates, use -egen,
count- with the -by- prefix.

Betreff: st: creating a count variable

Hi

This is very simple but I keep getting it wrong. I have data with
large number of observations (hospitals) and I need to generate a count
variable
of how observations are in each geographic area. The variables are idno for
the facility, home for the location of the facility.
Thank you in advance for your help
