Thank you Nick
 
I never programmed and it seems complicated than i thought.

Kind Regards,

0. Read the chapters on [U] on programming until you understand enough
to get your program working correctly.

1. Your program will allow syntax like the r-class command, but will
be declared as e-class.

2. Your program will run the r-class command.

3. Your program will pick up the r-class results you want and return
them as e-class results.

Here is a toy example:

program mymean, eclass
                version 9
    syntax varname(numeric) [if] [in]
    marksample touse
    qui count if `touse'
    su `varlist' if `touse', meanonly
    ereturn scalar mean = r(mean)
end

If you have never programmed in Stata before, expect this to take
several hours.

Naturally, it might be easier to work out how to format results you
save otherwise within your word processing software (at a guess, MS
Word).
