Hello all
I have world Bank time series data downloaded in a format given below
Country country-code Variable variable-code year1 year2 year3...... year10
where below year we have the value for particular variable for that year.
but I am interested to have my data in the following form
Country country-code Variable1 variable2
year1 year1
year 2 year2
year3 year3
...... ......
year10 year10
i.e. for a variable value should stack below each other according to
increasing value of year panel format.
I thought of reshape command but I am not clear how to do this in this case
I have access to stata10
Please suggest me something
Prakash
