Dear all,
when I -insheet- data from a .txt file, the special characters -é-, -è-, -ü-, -ä- and -ö- are all replaced with the same big square. This is suboptimal: I cannot correct this mistake afterward by replacing the big square for after insheeting I my code cannot recognize anymore which of these special characters was there before the big square. One solution is to somehow replace each special character with something more readable for Stata within the txt file, but is there also any option for -insheet- to do it from within Stata?
Thanks so much, PM
