I'm running a tabstat over 10 grade (3 through 12) over several
variables. When it gets to grade 9 for one variable, the command stops
processing because there are no observations for grade 9. Is there a
way I can force the command to continue to run through grade 10-12?

Thank you.

Command:
.
. forvalues c=3/12 {
  2.   display " "
  3.   display " "
  4.   display "Percent Prof/Adv, Language Arts, Grade `a'"
  5.   display "School-Level Minimum, Maximum, Mean, & Median"
  6.   tabstat  pctlap`c', by( stfips) statistics(count min max mean
median) casewise format nototal
  7. }



Output:

Percent Prof/Adv, Reading/Language Arts, Grade 8
School-Level Minimum, Maximum, Mean, & Median
