Hello statalisters

I have a variable which is an icd-9 descriptor (e.g. "009    ill-defined
intestinal infections"
I want to do a tab with the descriptor as var1 and something else as var2
e.g.  "tab dx2desc chrAll"
When I do this I get tab output but the icd9 descriptor (i.e. dx2desc) is
truncated
so I get "009 ill-defined i" instead of "009 ill-defined intestinal
infection"
Is there any way to get tab to give a more complete (i.e. wider) output of
dx2desc?

Many thanks
