Transforming data

Dear all,

Short question: If I am to transform the data (let's say log-transform), do I have to log-transform all the variables that I will use in a linear regression? All of the predictors and the outcome variable? 

Thank you!

Best wishes,

Veronica

Hi. All the variables have to be in a quantitative format. All the cualitatives has to be formatted as dummy variables.
