there isn't a machinery to change weekly to monthly directly. However, you could change weekly into daily first and then montly from daily. May be sth like this... gen daily=dofw(tw) format daily %td gen monthly=mofd(td) format monthly %tm Alternatively, you could also do gen monthly=mofd(dofw(tw)) format monthly %tm The codes aren't tested. For more on stata data.... help date in command window Hope it helps, Tashi ---------------------------------------- > From: jmale117@hotmail.com > To: statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu > Subject: st: converting weekly to monthly data > Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2012 17:37:27 +0000 > > hii all i got weekly sales data that i need to convert to monthly, but iam not sure how to do this, as the number of weeks in a month is not exactly 4 > can any one help > my data looks like this > > 2010 week 1 7677 > 2010 week 2 5466 > 2010 week 3 6776 > .. > 2010 week 53 7774 > > > > 2011 week 1 4567 > ... > 2011 wek 52 4990 > > thanks inadvance > > * > * For searches and help try: > * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search > * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq > * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/ * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
