Dear All

Is there a way where we can generate a new variable from an existing numeric variable with labels to take only the labels of the variable and not the values. When we write the following command :
"gen var=var2" and if var2 is a numeric variable with label then the new variable "var" will be a numeric variable taking only the values and not the label. I want it to take only the labels and not the value which means I want to generate a string variable taking the label of the existing variable "Var2".

Thank you in advance
