Hello All and thanks in advance for any advice.

I have a data frame with rows corresponding radio-collared animals (see
sample data below).  There is a start date (DATESTART), and end date
(DATEEND), and the number of days on air (DAYSONAIR).  What I would like to
do is add a column called DATE to so that each row ID has a row for every
day that the radio collar was on the air while copying all other data.  For
example ID 1001 would expand into 48 rows beginning with 4/17/91 and ending
with 6/4/91.  all other values would remain the same for each new
rowUnfortunately I have not gotten anywhere with my attempts


Thank you!!
