If your dataset looks like this:
***********
clear*
set obs 19
gen int year=_n+1986
//10 firms
expand 10
bys year: gen byte firm =_n
gen byte derivuse=runiform()>.25 if year==2000
***********
you can simply condition on -if derivuse==1- in your analyses.

Subject: st: A Question on Selecting a Sample from a Panel Data Set
Hi!
I have a panel data set consisting of financial data for 423 firms over
a 19-year period. For one of the years (2000) I have data on
derivatives use (use or non-use) for these 423 firms. I need to generate
a sample of firms that used derivatives in 2000 and use it to run
regressions over the entire period 1987-2005. This is where I'm stuck.
Thanks!
Hong V. Nguyen
