Right now there is no way to directly import data from Stata into CSPro format. You will have to manually convert the data. The easiest option for you will be to:

1) Export from Stata to Excel format.

2) Following the instructions in the CSPro helps (under the title "Importing Data to CSPro Format") to convert the Excel file to a flat text file.

3) Create a dictionary to describe that file.
