Dear Statalist members,

Assume that in a folder with thousands of files, there are some that have completely missing information. They only contain variable names. See the example below.

file1.dta

Code:
* Example generated by -dataex-. To install: ssc install dataex
clear
input byte(var1 var2 var3)
12 10 9
 5  6 9
end
file2.dta

file2.dta does not have any data apart from the variable names (var1 var2 var3). No lines with data whatsoever.

I am wondering whether there is a way to pin down the completely empty files and put them away (e.g., in another folder or subfolder) or even delete them.

Thanks in advance.
