Re: st: tables to include columns for observations that are not present

["Christopher W. Ryan" <cryan@binghamton.edu>]

One not-so-stylish solution I had thought of was to use the "fake" 
student I have in the database be recorded as seeing one of every 
top-ten diagnosis.  That way, a column for every top-ten code would be 
generated by a simple -table- command.
