st: Loosing precision with Total( )

["Michael Crain" <michaelcrain@hotmail.com>]

The solution to this issue is probably simple.  Here is my problem.

I am using theTotal function to calculate the total of a variable for a 
large number of observations:   total(var)

I get a result of something like 7.25e+08

How do I get the total without loosing precision?

Stata version 9

Thank you.
