Hi all,
Is there a way to name the variables created by tabulate generate() according to the tabulated variable's value labels. I want to create dummies for each category in the variable "tenure", which takes the values
1==Freehold
2==Leasehold
3==Mailo
4==Customary
These show up as the newly created variables' labels, but I'd like them to be the variable names. Any thoughts?
