Subject:      Temporary Variables
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Hi everybody:
I have the following problem:
I have to calculate a dicotomus variable ( one taking only to values) but the if
condition that determines which of the two values it must take,  depends on the
mean of another variable of the data base.
I would like to know whether there is a way to create a temporary variable that
calculates it and then use it in the if-clause.
Thank you very much,
Maria Elena.
