Dear all,

Please, is there a command to labeling variables without truncating to 80 characters?

Thank you

Otherwise put,

1. The limit of 80 characters is absolute. See

help limits

in your version of Stata.

2. Where would put such lengthy labels in text or graphical output?

3. Lengthier metadata can be stored. Consider the use of notes.
