Hi all, the data is list with the following column headers:
countryname countrycode seriesname seriescode y1960 ...... y2010
My question is how to plug these variables into the reshape command
Some of u will suggest using user written commands, they keep failing
no matter how many variables, countries, or years I drop.
So simply if Stata can do it with the built in commands what is the
right syntax to use?
All the best
