Hi Eric,
I ran the code you provided below and the address portion worked
great. However, I received a "_merge
nonmissing conflict (5)" under the Stata created merge variable. I
also noticed that Stata changed all the names to match. For example,
Emmmanuel Convalescent Hospital Alameda became Crown Bay Nursing and
Rehab for all observations with osphd_fac_no 206010734. I need the
names to stay the same. Here is the output so you can see
specifically what I am talking about:
oshpd_fac_no year facility_name street_address city zip_code state _merge
206010736 2002 CROWN BAY NURSING AND REHAB 508 WESTLINE
DRIVE ALAMEDA 94501-5847 CA nonmissing conflict (5)
206010736 2003 CROWN BAY NURSING AND REHAB 508 WESTLINE
DRIVE ALAMEDA 94501-5847 CA nonmissing conflict (5)
206010736 2004 CROWN BAY NURSING AND REHAB 508 WESTLINE

206010736 2006 CROWN BAY NURSING AND REHAB 508 WESTLINE

206010752 2008 ASHBY CARE CENTER 2270 ASHBY
AVENUE BERKELEY 94705-1935 CA nonmissing conflict (5)
Is there a way to tell Stata to only replace certain variables?
Thanks,
Matt

I took that information, collapsed it, performed an outsheet, had all of the addresses verified/corrected via an address verification program, insheeted the results back into Stata, and saved it under a new file name. My challenge now is how to put my master file back together with the addresses that were just corrected. Any ideas?
