I would like to replace the missing values for Luxembourg with the same data that I have for Belgium & Luxemburg. I tried to do it one by one using for instance:

Code:
replace iso_d=iso_d in 21/40 if NAMES_STD=="Belgium"
However nothing happens. My question is how I can do this and whether there is a way to replace all the variables in one shot.

Thanks in advace
