Hi, my question is about what to do after using the SELECT tool. I'm working in Stata. I see the .dct and .do files with my selected variables. I've tried opening the .dct file using the command: "infile using C:\XXX.dct". I get the following error message: "file does not contain dictionary".

This is my first time working with a .dct file so appreciate your help.
