I'm a big fan of Stata and recommend it to all my grad students, except for one feature: it's striking inability in import/export data files from SPSS and SAS. In this day and age, it seems crazy that Stata still requires its customers to buy a separate program, Stat/Transfer for $300, just to do the basic job of opening a file from another program. As far as I can tell, Stata 13 continues to have this aggravating limitation. Any chance StataCorp will change this in the years ahead?
