Hello,
I need to write out a data matrix as a STATA 7 file and this happens perfectly with write.dta(), except I cannot seem to export the labelnames to Stata.
So far I have tried the following: # X is the data matrix that is to be exported attributes(X)$var.labels <- c("apple", "banana", "cat") write(X, filename = "text.dta", version = 7)
When i open the file in stata instead of the label names all I get are the variable names, when i ask stata to "describe" the data.
I am hoping someone can suggest ways in which i can export the label names more effectively!
thanks.
