Let me explain what I am planning on doing; some background is probably necessary and in hindsight the first email doesn't accurately describe what I am looking to do. I'm trying to run a conditional logit model, but I want to have a different strata depending on the value of another variable if sample==1 I want my strata to be stratida if sample==2 I want my strata to be stratidb if sample==3 I want my strata to be stratidc
stratida/stratidb/stratidc are NOT variables already in the dataset. they represent a string combination of three already present numerical variables (year, byregn2, group) and differ for when the variable sample is ==1,2 or 3. They are different variables for labeling purposes. What I am looking to do is replicate these in one variable--make one variable that is the string combination of year, byregn2, and group and then use it as my strata.
