Re: st: RE: Stata graphs to Latex with Graph2tex command

[Suzy <scott_788@wowway.com>]

Yes, you are correct. I just typed  "pwd" to find out where the file was 
(this is the graph2tex command suggested), moved it into the correct 
directory and it works fine. The graph2tex command is simple and great 
for LaTeX newbies.  Will table output  by Stata also work ? If so, how 
explicitly is it done? I do have a a word to tex converter (Word2teX), 
if that helps steer a recommendation.
Thanks Maarten!
