Oliver and Daniel thank you again.
Sorry but it happened that I was quite unclear with my previous post.
My oldvar takes on values from 1 to 306.
Indeed I need to generate a new variable in this way:
newvar which takes on the value 1 each time oldvar takes on the values
1, or 6, or 11,.....,or 301
newvar which takes on the value 2 each time oldvar takes on the values
2, or 7, or 12,.....,or 302
newvar which takes on the value 3 each time oldvar takes on the values
3, or 8, or 13....., or 303
newvar which takes on the value 4 each time oldvar takes on the values
4, or 9, or 14,.....,or 304
newvar which takes on the value 5 each time oldvar takes on the values
5, or 10, or 15,.....,or 305
Thank you
