Hello all,
I attach two gdt panel data files (is what I managed to do, TIME is a time
index, GEO lists 38 countries/regions, and two variables CP00, CP01),
example1.gdt goes from 2016:01-2018:12 and
example2.gdt goes from 2019:01-2022:04
(A) is there an "easy" way to "join" the two gdt files into one
time-larger
file? running from 2016:01:-2022:04?
(B) how can i "easily" transform the panel dataset into a time-series set
with 38 CP00 series, say EU_CP00, EA_CP00,... and 38 CP01 series, EU_CP01,
EA_CP01,...?
PS = OK I admit "easy" is rather varue. I mean using the mouse menu route
or i guess a few hansl lines? (of course many more lines would be
also welcome if there is no other way ...).
Thanks
Yiannis
