Hi Nikos,

The output below is from an ado command that I wrote to generate the
typical Table 1 in many publications. It displays column (default) or
row percentages in parentheses and also allows the addition of P values
from any significance test supported by Stata's Tabulate command. The
columns are separated by tabs, so you could just copy and paste as a
Word table. The command still needs some tidying and documentation is
skimpy, but if this could be of any help, please contact me privately.
Hopefully, one day will have the time to finish it and post it on SSC.

Regards, 

Salah
