Data format problem

I have a dataset from the World Bank on ginis. The MVs were originally .. but I changed them to "." Brought them into Stata, encoded the ginis, but I am now getting valid values for all cases:

.The ginis from the WB data are gini1990, etc. The encoded data are gini1990new, etc. The WB data have 15 non-missing cases for gini1990 and all missing for 2014 and 2015. But here is what I get:


Variable | N Mean SD Min Max
-------------+---------------------------------------------
gini1990new | 214 1.56 2.35 1.00 16.00
gini2000new | 214 5.02 9.78 1.00 42.00
gini2006new | 214 13.28 21.09 1.00 73.00
gini2007new | 214 13.97 21.87 1.00 75.00
gini2008new | 214 13.90 21.69 1.00 74.00
gini2009new | 214 14.32 21.96 1.00 75.00
gini2010new | 214 15.40 23.43 1.00 79.00
gini2011new | 214 11.55 18.81 1.00 67.00
gini2012new | 214 12.06 19.55 1.00 69.00
gini2013new | 214 2.29 4.32 1.00 24.00
gini2014new | 214 1.00 0.00 1.00 1.00
gini2015new | 214 1.00 0.00 1.00 1.00

So why do I get N = 214 for all years and all values = 1 for 2014 and 2015 when they should be all missing. I attach the data. Thanks for any help.
