Re: st: RE: How can I append tabout output in Excel using logout?

Dear Nick

Many thanks for your suggestion yesterday. Apologies that I didn't
read this yesterday.

I am now trying to export the tabstat output into Excel using
-logout-. I added this to command to my code from yesterday (which I
will update using your helpful suggestions). Logout doesn't seem to
append each additional table.

Regards

Sara
