Hi! I am new to STATA and I am trying to recode a variable with 40 values. For values 1 to 38, i want to keep their original codes so Im effectively just recoding 39 and 40. Is there a syntax to code 1 to 38 so that they keep their original values instead of having to type recode var (1=1) (2=2) (3=3)...?
Thanks
