>Thank you Rich! I actually discovered that you can do "find/replace" under the variable view tab. When you highlight the column with all the variable names and press control F, you can do a replace "_t1" with a blank, and that worked.
Great! You improved on the solution! (at least, for the
one-time requirement).
I'm thinking, there is a potential advantage of the solution
done by tedious syntax -- In my experience of analyzing data
from other people, it is not uncommon for them to want to
edit some values in the set, or to add a few cases... or even
do the whole thing with some other data. Having syntax
(a) documents the process and (b) allows for instant re-runs.
Leaving everything useful in (saved) syntax is a good idea in
the long run, even if you have interactive experiments that you
throw away.
