Delete part of variable label

[Nick Bornschein]

Hi,

I have 10 variables labeled starting with "xx/" and ending different "xx/J7G" or "xx/K6E". How can I delete - hopefully in a loop - the "xx/" part of every label? I already googled but could not find anything working.

foreach var of varlist <my 10 variables> {
    local variable_label : variable label `var'
    local variable_label : subinstr local variable_label "xx/" ""
    label variable `var' "`variable_label'"
}

Thank you so much! Sometimes it is so easy.
