st: Correlation of repeated baseline measures in sampsi

Hello,
I'm using the sampsi command to calculate sample size for a two-sample
study with 12 monthly baseline measurements and 12 monthly follow-up
measurements. I have data from a previous study and can calculate mean
and standard deviations for both samples.
My question is, how do I calculate correlation of baseline measurements
(r0), correlation of follow-up measurements (r1), and correlation
between baseline and follow-up measurements (r01)? These require a
single measure (not a covariance matrix). In all the references I have
seen, there are statements like "correlation of baseline measurements
calculated from previous study", but I see no reference as to how this
is done. Can someone please help?
Thank you,
Helen Connolly
