Hello,
I have a Problem regarding the import of a CSV file.
The following code produces an encoding Problem with the "*" sign (asterisk), even though in the provided data sample the variable looks fine.
I first tried it without the encoding(utf8) part, thinking that with stata16 that is not necessary anymore. However, in both cases, with or without , I get the little questionmarks instead of the asterisk.
has anybody an idea what could cause the problem?
Best regards
