Hello,
This seems to be an obvious question but somehow , I am not able to get it .
I have two string variables x , y as follows
Index x y
1 74170 COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY, ABDOMEN; WITHOUT CONTRAST MATERIAL
2 73725 MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY, LOWER EXTREMITY
.
.
.
.
.
.
1000
I want to generate a string variable z , in the following format corresponding the observations 1, 2 :
label define singleDXCCSlabel 74170 `"COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY, ABDOMEN; WITHOUT CONTRAST MATERIAL"', modify
label define singleDXCCSlabel 73725 `"MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY, LOWER EXTREMITY"', modify
.
.
.
.
.
thank you very much for your time
Thank you,
Yours Sincerely,
Anwar
