Copy values to the group

[Karthik Ram]

Hi There,

I am new to STATA and this is my first post here. Excited to be here.
I have a question on copying a value to missing values of the group.
Below is the illustrative problem I have. How do I copy the value for all of the fields of a group. e.g. I want to copy 1 for all of value cells of group 1 and so on for the rest of the groups.
Can anyone help me here with STATA code?

Thanks
Karthik

Dear Mr. Cox,

Apologies for my ignorance on using wrong language. Henceforth I will use Stata.

Thank you
Karthik

The Statalist post on mipolate should also be of help.
