You can also cut and paste using Shit-Ctrl-C (or the "copy table" function
in the edit menu) once you have highlighted the table. This will put
tab-delimited text into a Word document which can then be converted using
relevant command in the "Table" menu of Word (exact command depends on which
version). This works well for getting values across, but I usually need to
"pretty-up" headings etc.

Subject: st: how to get tables into publishable format
Relatively new to Stata. running version 8 (sometimes 7) on Win 98.
What is a good way to get tables from the results window, or a log file,
into
another piece of software used for writing research papers (eg OpenOffice,
MS
Word, Excel, etc.)? Journal editors often (usually) want their tables in
some
particular format. I want to copy-and-paste, not type the table over again.
And I want the table formatted nicely, with vertical lines delineating
columns;
borders, headings, etc.
Thanks.
