Here's a solution for 2-way or n-way cross-tabulations.

sysuse auto, clear
outreg2 mpg trunk using myfile, cross replace side noparen tex exel

Limitation 1: the first variable must be integer. See the help file.
Limitation 2: the column titles are sketchy because wasn't meant to be
used with -side- option.

These things can be fixed but not high on my list. As Nick mentioned,
these are your problems.

You should hire somebody if you want customized solutions.
