As Nick points out in the help file to his -ssc d copydesc-, there seems to
be a undocumented utility in official Stata for this purpose as well:
*************
sysuse auto, clear
d mpg weight
_crcslbl weight mpg
d mpg weight
*************

" What if I now want to copy the variable label from of pwvssn to a
variable called zpwvssn?"
Let`s give "weight" the -var label- of "mpg":
*************
sysuse auto, clear
d mpg weight
la var weight "`: var l mpg'"
d mpg weight
*************
You can also do things like -clonevar- which copies everything else as well.

Thank you.
pwvssn is just one of 52 variables.
What if I now want to copy the variable label from of pwvssn to a
variable called zpwvssn?
