Dear Stata Users,
I am trying to import dataset below into stata from csv Array but some variable names are too long and and are separated by '/' so they come out in the format v23, v24 v25, etc. Kindly I seek guidance on how I can write a loop statement in stata to import this dataset into stata without renaming the variables in the format v23, v24 and etc. I I would prefer to start ready from right and stops where the 1st '/' and pick that as the variable name. I believe this is possible but through loops. Kindly I would appreciate any guidance on how to fix this. see attached data format for guidance.
Thank you.
Collins
