Georges,
In addition to the previous suggestions, you can also do:
tabi 2661 23243 / 1775 7213, row chi
This uses the chi-square test instead of the large-sample z-test. Although you have to compute the difference between the numerator and denominator, it has the advantage of being able to do Fisher's exact test if necessary/appropriate:
tabi 2661 23243 / 1775 7213, row chi exact
