The new table features introduced in Stata 17 and Stata 18 have made it easy to create and customize tables of descriptive statistics, regression results, and more. These powerful features became popular among our users very soon after they were introduced, and we often get questions from users who want to know how to accomplish specific customizations for their tables. To provide our community with more learning resources, we carefully selected some of the questions that we answered frequently, and turned them into a series of example-enriched FAQs: Read more…

In Customizable tables in Stata 17, part 5, I showed you how to use the new and improved table command to create a table of results from a logistic regression model. We are likely to create many more tables of regression results, and we will probably use the same style and labels. In this post, I will show you how to save your styles and labels so that you can use them to format future tables. I will use the Microsoft Word document that we created in part 5 as our goal.

In my last post, I showed you how to create a table of statistical tests using the command() option in the new and improved table command. In this post, I will show you how to gather information and create tables using the new collect suite of commands. Our goal is to fit three logistic regression models and create the table in the Adobe PDF document below. Read more…

In my last post, I showed you how to use the new and improved table command with the command() option to create a table of statistical tests. In this post, I want to show you how to use the command() option to create a table for a single regression model. Our goal is to create the table in the Microsoft Word document below. Read more…

In my last post, I showed you how to use the new and improved table command with the statistic() option to create a classic table 1. In this post, I want to show you how to use the command() option to create a table of statistical tests. Our goal is to create the table in the Microsoft Word document below. Read more…

In my last two posts, I showed you how to use the new-and-improved table command to create a table and how to use the collect commands to customize and export the table. In this post, I want to show you how to use these tools to create a table of descriptive statistics that is often called a “classic table 1”. Our goal is to create the table in the Microsoft Word document below. Read more…

In my last post, I showed you how to use the new-and-improved table command to create a table and how to use some of the options to customize the table. In this post I want to introduce the collect commands. Many Stata commands begin with collect, and they can be used to create collections, customize table layouts, format the numbers in the tables, and export tables to documents. There are so many new collect commands that we created a new Customizable Tables and Collected Results Reference Manual. Today, I want to show you how to use some of the collect commands to customize the look of your tables. I will show you more advanced uses of collect in future posts. Read more…

Today, I’m going to begin a series of blog posts about customizable tables in Stata 17. We expanded the functionality of the table command. We also developed an entirely new system that allows you to collect results from any Stata command, create custom table layouts and styles, save and use those layouts and styles, and export your tables to most popular document formats. We even added a new manual to show you how to use this powerful and flexible system. Read more…
