Subject | st: Reading multiple .csvs from a folder |
Date | Wed, 16 Nov 2011 15:03:02 -0500 |
Hello collective wisdom, I was wondering if STATA has a means of reading all .csvs (or similar formats) from within a designated folder. Namely, instead of having to designate specific .csv *filenames*, I'd like to be able to designate a *folder* (and potentially apply a regex or regex-like filter for choosing specific .csvs from within said folder). I am essentially looking for the STATA equivalent of Python's GLOB [ http://docs.python.org/library/glob.html ;] Many thanks for your insights!
