Change Working Directory in Stata | Change current folder in Stata

The working directory is a folder that contains all the files relevant to our project. Now either we use an absolute path with each file that we import or export in Stata or we can use a relative path. If we use absolute path then each time we change the name of the folder or share our data or do a file with someone else they would also have to change all the paths. A better way is to use cd (change directory) command which is used to change the working directory. 00:00 What is a working directory 0:33 Need to change the working directory 03:20 A better way 05:21 Check the current folder 6:00 Move up one level 8:20 List of files in a folder Website: thedatahall.com As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
