Abstract: dta2md converts a Stata system file to aggregated metadata. For all variables, descriptive statistics are computed. Additionally, for a specified subset of variables, frequencies on the value level can be generated. The ado allows to generate all metadata for the whole sample and also for all levels of a categorical variable. Exemplatory use cases might be international comparative data.
