Hi,
I'm relatively new to Stata and am wondering if I'm missing something simple when it comes to selecting variables in a dialog box? Say I want to perform a simple regression - with the cursor in the 'Dependent Variable' box, is the standard behaviour that you have to type out the variable name in full (or scroll down the list and manually select it)? i.e. if you click the down arrow and start typing the first couple of letters of the variable name, Stata doesn't auto-filter possible matches? I am often given datasets with hundreds of variables with non-simple variable names - it would obviously be helpful in quickly locating a variable.
Thanks,
Paul
