Once again, it worked, and I thank you. One last thing. It turns out that there were a total of 5 variables that needed to be converted, and I just added them to the code as indicated above. All 5 variables were converted, and the old ones dropped, which is great. However, one of the variables had two decimal places (it ranged from 1 to 5, so values could be 1.77 and so forth). The variable is AVG_ED08. I tried adding two zeroes after the period (see below) AVG_ED08=input(oldAVG_ED08,1.00); But the two decimal places were dropped in the new file. Can you please tell me the code for retaining the two decimal places? Thanks again.
