Stat/Transfer is designed to simplify the transfer of statistical data between different programs.
Manual transfer is not only time-consuming, it is error-prone. For those in possession of data sets with many variables, it represents a serious impediment to the use of more than one program.
Stat/Transfer removes this barrier by providing an extremely fast, reliable and automatic way to move data.
Stat/Transfer will automatically read statistical data in the internal format of one of the supported programs and will then transfer as much of the information as is present and appropriate to the internal format of another.
Stat/Transfer preserves all of the precision in your data, while automatically minimizing the size of your output data set. Stat/Transfer also allows control over the storage format of your output variables.
In addition to converting the formats of variables, Stat/Transfer also processes variable names, missing values and value and variable labels automatically.
Stat/Transfer can save hours and even days of manual labor, while at the same time eliminating error. Furthermore, you gain this speed and accuracy without losing flexibility, since Stat/Transfer allows you to select just the variables and cases you want to transfer.
In addition to the standard graphical user interface, a command processor allows you to run a transfer in batch mode. This makes it straightforward to set up fully automatic batch procedures for repetitive tasks.

Accuracy
Stat/Transfer moves your data from one program to another with no loss of precision, while producing the smallest datasets possible. All of your metadata – value labels, variable labels and missing values – are accurately and effortlessly transformed.

Reproducibility
Stat/Transfer can automatically produce a log documenting your transfer operations. It can also produce a Stat/Transfer command processor that will enable you to re-run the transfer with just a few clicks. Because this program reflects the entire state of your options settings as well as all of the other information entered in the user interface, it allows you to thoroughly document your data transfer.

Flexibility
With Stat/Transfer you can produce just the output you need. It is easy to select variables, cases and data types. A variety of options (all with sensible defaults) allow you to tailor your transfer so that it meets the needs that you have today and in the future.

Speed
Most transfer operations take just a few seconds and few clicks of the mouse. Of course you could use other tools to do what Stat/Transfer does, but it would take you hours, days, and even weeks of effort to duplicate what Stat/Transfer does in a few seconds. What is your time worth?

Ease of Use
Fast transfers aren’t fast if you have to spend time puzzling over how to set them up. With Stat/Transfer’s intuitive user interface, most transfers can be performed with only a few mouse clicks. For more complicated operations, context sensitive help is a click away. Stat/Transfer is designed from top to bottom to save you valuable time.

Stat/Transfer Version 13 has added full support for the following formats:

• EViews
• Genstat
• Stata 14 (with full support of Unicode and the new higher observation limit of Stata/MP)

Stat/Transfer Version 13 has a number of new or improved features:

• New Options
• Preserve numeric widths
• Control over SAS Date and Time formats
• Blank columns can be optionally transferred from worksheets
• Value labels can be written to Excel
• New Control over Variable Order and Characteristics. Stat/Transfer 13 has a new, editable, schema format for ASCII delimited files. If you write a file from any import source into this format, you can then re-order variables, change their names, types, and output widths, assign labels or do anything else you need to get your data in just the format you need. Then, when you transfer from this format into your chosen final output format, your changes will be applied.
