The group only has 3 subjects and, I suspect, only two failures. If
that's the case, then there is no information to the right of the median
upon which to estimate an upper bound.
As for getting it into a .rtf file, if this is the only table you have,
just select it in the results window with your mouse, right-click, and
select "copy table". Then paste it into your word processor.
If you have many tables like this, you'll need to capture the output
after each call to -stci-. Stata saves this in r(p50), r(lb), and
r(ub). Then use -file write- to write these to a text file.

Subject: Re: st: convertig stci into a output table
I know the group only contains 3 subjects and I will not use it for
anything. However I was surprised that the lower limit was displayed
whilst the upper limit was not.
Any good idea on how to automatically convert this into an rtf table?
