Hey everyone,
I'm attempting to assemble a panel dataset using a handful of CSV files each of which correspond to a single year. Each file has the same name ending in the year the data corresponds to. That is my csv files are "data1992.csv", "data1993.csv", eta. I just want to import them, generate a variable corresponding to the year, and then save the file as .dta. My current attempt is
forvalues i = 1992(1)2000 {
import delimited "hd'i'.csv"
gen year='i'
save tem'i'.dta, replace
}
Thanks for anyone's help or advice!
