Not clear what your question is here, but check out -reshape-.
You have what -reshape- calls a long structure. The table is in essence
a wide one. But mostly in Stata you are better off with long, namely
what you have already.
I never knew this before, but it seems you can abbreviate -tabdisp- to
-tabd- or -tabdi- or -tabdis-.

I have the following data:
tract,sector,counts
1, 9, 15
2, 3, 20
3, 2, 5
3, 3, 10
3, 5, 35
I have 300 tracts, 9 sectors (1-9) and counts shows
how many of each sector in each tract.
I want to make them into the followign format:
tract, sector1, 2, sector3, sec4, sec5, ,,,, sec9
1 15(counts)
2 20
3 5 10 35
I used
>tabdis tract sector, cell(counts)
It gives the table like the above one, then I copy the table into excel
Any shortcut way to produce the tablelike the above one into the
datasheet?
