RE: st: Table to count how many times an event occurs with another

If you have only four dummies then:
*** example begin***
gen d1d2d3d4 = D1*1000 + D2*100 + D3*10 + D4
tab d1d2d3d4
*** example end***
Might do what you want?

This is an example of my databse:
Date Time D1 D2 D3 D4
01/01/2008 8:00 1 0 0 1
01/01/2008 9:00 0 0 0 0
01/01/2008 10:00 0 1 1 0
..... ....... . . . .
For every day I have something similar to the above example with dummy variables.
In the fist row (8:30) I have that two dummies happen at the same time and also in the last row (10:00).
I want to construct a table, in which I have the number of times ( for each interval throughout my whole sample) I have that events D1 and D4 happen together and D2 and D3 happen together and so on for all possible combinations.
Thanks,
Katia
