" What are you doing with this inp str10"



-input- is intended to create a fake dataset, so we can replicate your
problem.



"Does anybody see a reason why i always get the "0 real changes made" for
the
last two commands?"


-inlist()- expects the arguments for comparison as comma-separated which
"others" is not... See Bill`s little -program- in
http://www.stata-journal.com/article.html?article=dm0049 on how to change
that...

Betreff: st: Re: Identify and Replace Values

I dont get that one.. What are you doing with this inp str10? But anyways i
have already renamed all the Model Names, so i am still working with the
following code:

levelsof traded_model, local(traded)
levelsof new_model, local(new)
local onlytraded : list traded - new
local onlynew : list new - traded
local others : list onlynew | onlytraded
replace traded_model="others" if inlist(traded_model,"`others'")
replace new_model   ="others" if inlist(new_model,"`others'")

Does anybody see a reason why i always get the "0 real changes made" for the
last two commands? Is there a mistake in the syntax somewhere, i dont see
the problem. I think there must be something wrong with lines 3-5, i cant
find the error.....
Thank you..
