What you are probably doing wrong is putting the same filename as the
-using- file and the -appendto()- option. Assuming that you want to create
a file -table_countries.txt- and then append to it, you should type
listtex name using table_countries.txt if sample39_absence==1,
rstyle(tabdelim) replace
listtex name if sample32_absence==1, rstyle(tabdelim)
appendto(table_countries.txt)
The -using- file, if it already exists is overwritten (not appended to) if
-replace- is specified, and otherwise causes the error message that you got.
I hope this helps.
Roger
