I'm working on IR file, I want to use only the b5_ variable, and in India DHS, it ranges from b5_01 to b5_20.
So my query is how to reshape it.
I'm trying to do it with the codes given as

reshape long b5_ , i(caseid) j(bindex)

But it is not giving the correct results when I'm checking it with couple file(where b5 is directly given), I tried this code also

reshape long b5_0 , i(caseid) j(bindex)

but here, the j goes from 0 to 9 only.

Please help me with this.
