Dear Michael:
Thank you for your help. The title option of mat2txt is perfect. (I should have searched this before. Sorry for that).
Best regards

Subject: st: Makematrix- Possible title of the matrix?

> I use the -makematrix- command -followed by -mat2txt- to produce tables of

> It works perfectly with the following command:

> makematrix c1, from(r(N) r(mean) r(sd))label : univar var1 var2 var3 var4
> if president==1
> makematrix c2, from(r(N) r(mean) r(sd)) label : univar var1 var2 var3 var4
> if president==0
> makematrix c3, from(r(z) 2*normprob(-abs(r(z)))) label : ranksum var1 var2
> var3 var4 , by(indep)
> matrix c4 = c1 , c2, c3
> matrix colnames c4 = N "Mean" "Standard deviation" N "Mean" "Standard
> deviation" "Mann-Whitney U-test (Z)" "Mann-Whitney U-test (p-value)"
> mat2txt, matrix(c4) saving(stat_formation_metier) append
