drop if(var11 == var5)
this already doesn't work, maybe because each company has one value of var5
and has many counterpart observations in var11. and the var5 value in first
company for example could repeated in var11 for many companies.
So, the stata command should deal with each company alone and drop the
observation of var11 if it equal the value of var5 for the same company and
so on for all companies.
