  • No labels on tabulate

    When I tabulate the value labels aren't showing up. I know there are labels because when I do "label list var" it lists labels. Any Idea what I'm doing wrong?

    -label list var- tells you that the labels have been defined. But it doesn't tell you whether they have been attached to the variables. The fact that you aren't seeing them in the -tabulate- output suggests that they have not.

    The way to know whether your variable actually has a value label attached is by looking at the output of -describe-. You will see the name of any attached value label in the value label column of that output. I suspect in your case, there will be nothing there. In that case you need to attach he labels using the -label values- command.
