Dear Statalist,
I am working on a dataset as below:
So far I have removed indicator_name in order to reshape from long to wide:
I would like to use the value in indicator_name as label variable in the new variables. For example, new variable year11 should have a label as "Name of 1 in year 1".
I would appreciate any help.
Thank you!
