Is there any way to create duplicates of an observation in a dataset? I have dataset with EmpID and Entries column.  Based on Entries column I would like to
create duplicate observation.

Example:  If EmpID – 1000 has Entries = 5 then I would like the output as:

EmpIDEntries
100005
100005
100005
100005
100005

Thanks
