Something along the line of
. preserve
. foreach var of varlist v1-v20 {
. gen n = !mi(`var')
. collapse (count) n, by(`var')
. sort n
. outsheet `var' using `var'.tsv in 1/10
. restore, preserve
.}
You might also use some -listtex- instead of -outsheet- to produce the
frequency tables.
Many regards
