st: Deleting hlines (or midrules) in -tabout- .tex files

[Roberto Ferrer <refp16@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm using -tabout- (from SSC, Version 2.0.6 26nov2012) to make some
tables in Latex format. The result I'm getting is very close to what I
want. However, I would like to delete all the midrules (or hlines)
that appear within. How can this be achieved? I can't  find any option
that would allow me to do that.

Thank you.

* -------------------- my code ---------------------

tabout yearobs if inlist(yearobs, `yearstex') ///
    using "`pdir'/output/`dofile'.tex",  ///
        c(`allmean') sum f(2c)  ///
            replace style(tex) ptotal(none) bt h1(nil) h2(nil) ///
                h3(\multicolumn{8}{c}{Subtitle 1} \\)

tabout yearobs if inlist(yearobs, `yearstex') ///
    using "`pdir'/output/`dofile'.tex",  ///
    c(`allmean') sum f(2c)  ///
    append style(tex) ptotal(none) bt h1(nil) h2(\\) ///
    h3(\multicolumn{8}{c}{Subtitle 2} \\)
