[Limdep Nlogit List] Portion of new variables are created as 'missing' instead of 0-1

[William Greene]

The CREATE command operates on the current sample.  The observations that
do not
have the >> next to them are not in the sample.  Those observations become
missing
values in the commands below.  You should precede the CREATEs with
SAMPLE;All$
That will solve the problem.
