Generate dictionary file from Stata data -


i know can create dta file if have dat file , dictionary dct file. however, want know whether reverse possible. in particular, if have dta file, possible generate dct file along dat file (stata has export command allows export ascii file haven't found way generate dct file). stattransfer generate dct , dat file, wondering if possible without using stattransfer.

yes. outfile create dictionaries export data in ascii (text) form.

if want dictionaries , dictionaries alone, need delete data part.

if want 2 separate files, need split each file produced outfile.

either programmable in stata, or use favourite text editor or scripting language.

dictionaries in ways idea, not important stata in versions.
