Ilaria,
-summarize- returns a number of values, including minimum (see 'Saved Results' under -summarize- in the manual and in help). You can always see what is being returned using -return list- and generate a new variable from such output using something like generate newVar=r(min). Then it is preserved after subsequent tabulations and available for calculations.
Cameron.

Subject: st: Converting summary statistics into a column in stata editor
Dear Statalister,
I would like to retain the information I obtain with the command
summarize (more specifically the values "minimum") and put such values
in a column in stata editor. Is that possible? With which command?
Thanks!
Ilaria
