Does this just mean that I could also just do
. tab prtvtch lnghoma [aw=dweight]
and I would get the same results as if pweight were allowed with tables?
Thanks also for your suggestions of add-ons--saves me the trouble of
calculating percentages!

Re: st: Weighted Tables
After reading -help svy-, also try
. tab prtvtch lnghoma [aw=dweight], row col nofr
since the point estimates are identical using aweights or pweights
(only the standard errors change, as [pw]=[aw]+_robust, roughly), and
the -svy- commands can be much slower in big datasets.

. tab prtvtch lnghoma [pw=dweight]
