NAME

dta2csv - command-line tool to convert Stata 8 and Stata 10 .dta files to csv

SYNOPSIS

dta2csv file.dta [otherfile.dta ...]

The result will be in file.csv (or file-1.csv, file-2.csv, etc; no overwriting of existing files).

BUGS

Minimal documentation, error management and testing. All types of missing values in the .dta file are turned into blank cells in the CSV. Probably some other problems.
