Title

     uselab -- List value labels and variables using them


Syntax

        uselab [namelist] [current variables]


     where namelist is a list of value label names, a varlist, or a combination
     of the two


Description

    uselab lists value label names and all variables they are attached to. It
    provides the same information as official Stata's uselabel, but without
    creating a dataset. If namelist is not specified, all value labels in
    memory are listed together with all variables that use them.


Options

    current lists value label names in the current label language only.

    variables causes namelist to be interpreted as a varlist. If not
        specified, uselab will figure out whether name is a labelname or a
        varname for itself.


Example

        . sysuse nlsw88
        . uselab
        . uselab mar coll


Saved results

    uselab saves the following in r():

    Macros
        r(lblname) varlist using value label lblname
        r(languages) value label languages (multiligual datasets only)


Acknowledgements

    The major part of the code used is borrowed from official Stata's 
    uselabel.
