WIOD Data using R or STATA or Matlab

[bagel ross]

Hi everyone!
I am working on my research paper and I am using WIOD dataseries to determine the following:
a) Gross world trade
b)Gross world value added trade

Then I am zooming into Brazil as my country study to determine:
Domestic Value added in other countries exports
Foreign Value added
Trade in intermediates
the participation and position of Brazil industries - upstream vs downstream

I am familiar with R - so I have imported the R dataseries and cleaned the matrix. However, I am not sure how to get the above values. For examples the world gross exports the sum of all rows and column? Any guidance would be appreciated

Thank you in advance,

Ross

It shouldnt be any problem to answer this, but a data example helps a lot. Please post one using dataex, see also the explanation on how and why in the FAQ (http://www.statalist.org/forums/help#stata). This makes it a lot easier for people on the forum to copy your data into Stata. E.g.;

ssc install dataex
dataex in 1/20

When you post that example, please also pose your question in terms of variable names. I am not sure what "the world gross exports the sum of all rows and column" would be, even if I consider some probable data layout in my mind.
