st: Problems with reshape long

[Kris Anderson <andersok@reed.edu>]

Hi,

I need to reshape some data in order to run a repeated measures ANOVA. 
When I try to run the syntax, I get error messages.
reshape long cuestay - b6famrt, i(sub_num) j(scene) string

The variable scene (j), hoped to be the identifier variables in long 
form, is not numeric. It is cue, a1, b1, a2, b2, etc. Each scene has 
about 5 variables that are within.
What do I need to do in order to make this work?

Thanks,
Kris
