Export data to STATA keeping the variable Name format

Post by MarcOlivier »

Hi everyone
By exporting CSPro data to Stata, I always noticed that the Item names that were in uppercase in CSPro are turned into lowercase during export data.
This often objects to modify my dofile already written. :(
Is there any way to keep the uppercase characters of the Item Name ?

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to turn this off. This may have been a requirement when the export code was written. It may be worth a review to see if this is something we can changed. Thanks for the report.
