DDR syntax question

[Michael Hanus-2]

I am looking for syntax to run on DDRs (data demographic records), which are
strings of numbers appended to respondent data on online surveys, containing
respondents' demographic profile.
Does anyone have available syntax that can be run on these numbers in order
to strip and analyze these number strings? (e.g., obtain frequencies of
respondents by gender, race, etc)
This syntax is not available by the provider (Survey Sampling
International), and I think that recreating it might take too long.  Survey
Sampling uses DDR2, DDR3, and DDR4. This probably sounds familiar to someone
out there. Any help or suggestions? Please email me at
[hidden email]. Thanks!

Hi Mike,

SSI should be able to provide you with the position and code structure
of each DDR variable. Read the DDR variable in as STRING, and then use SUBSTR or a similar function to
populate new demo vars. Regards,
