I am sure this has been written up before, but I cannot seem to find the answer in the stata help docs. The problem I have is that I have a master with a name and year, and I have a using with name and date (month and year). In the using dataset, I've created a new variable that has extracted the year from the date. My goal is to merge these two datasets, by a 1:m merge using name and year. What are the most common solutions to this problem? Thanks!
