st: Dates in result window

["rasool.bux" <rasool.bux@aku.edu>]

Dear  All,

When I tabulate the date variable it is not displaying in the format which is defined in the data i.e. %dDD/NN/CCYY. When I list it is showing in the said format.

. tab date_6 in 1/10

     date_6 |      Freq.     Percent        Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
  04jun2007 |          1       10.00       10.00
  06nov2012 |          2       20.00       30.00
  26nov2012 |          1       10.00       40.00
  30dec2012 |          1       10.00       50.00
  28feb2013 |          1       10.00       60.00
  28may2013 |          1       10.00       70.00
  19sep2013 |          3       30.00      100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
      Total |         10      100.00

. list date_6 in 1/10

     +------------+
     |     date_6 |
     |------------|
  1. | 06/11/2012 |
  2. | 19/09/2013 |
  3. | 19/09/2013 |
  4. | 19/09/2013 |
  5. | 28/05/2013 |
     |------------|
  6. | 04/06/2007 |
  7. | 28/02/2013 |
  8. | 06/11/2012 |
  9. | 30/12/2012 |
10. | 26/11/2012 |
     +------------+

Is there any option to set the display format for the result window with tabulate or any other command?

Thanks
Rasool Bux
