Dear all,
I am looking for a neat way to import data from the OECD database directly into STATA without having to go through the loop of downloading many Excel sheets etc.
To this end, I want to use the user-written sdmxuse command. Apologies in advance if this is not the right place to ask about user-written commands, I was not sure whether in statalists it is okay to refer to these packages or not.
In execucting one of the examples which is provided, as well as in executing any other, I get an error message.
Thus, I have 2 questions:

Code:
ssc install sdmxuse
sdmxuse data OECD, clear dataset(EO) dimensions(FRA+DEU.GDPV_ANNPCT.)
command moss not found as either built-in or ado-file
- Would anyone know how to deal with this error? What am I doing wrong?
- Is there a good alternative to this package? For World Bank data, I have had good experiences with wbopendata, is there anything similar for the OECD?
Best
