General instructions

     To convert classic GTAP Data to GTAPv7 Data format: 
      (a) Open a DOS or CMD box
      (b) For standard GTAP Data Base, type:
	     
	     GTAPv7Data c: gtap10 gtap 2014
	     	where 
		 c: 	 is the location of GTAPAg2 folder
	     	 gtap10A is the GTAP Data version
		 gtap	 is the GTAP Data to be extracted 	
	     	 2014    is base year of the GTAP Data
	     
      (c) For satellite GTAP Data Base, say GTAP-E, type:
	     
	     GTAPv7-e-Data c: gtap10A gtap-e 2014
	     	where 
		 c: 	 is the location of GTAPAg2 folder
	     	 gtap10A is the GTAP Data version
		 gtap-e	 is the GTAP Data to be extracted 	
	     	 2014    is base year of the GTAP Data

Examples
--------
 (i)   If your GTAPAgg folder is in another location, say v:, then type:
		GTAPv7Data v: gtap10A gtap 2014

 (ii)  If you want to use GTAP-E Data with 2014 base year, then type:
		GTAPv7-e-Data v: gtap10A gtap-e 2014

 (iii) If you want to use GTAP9A Data with 2011 base year, then type:
		GTAPv7Data v: gtap10A gtap-e 2014
