Could anyone give me some suggestion of how to show variable labels in
summarize command output ? Now STATA shows variables names in the
output of "sum" command. I was wondering if it's possible to show
variable labels instead of variable name or together with variable
names.
Now stata shows:
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
exp
What I want is:
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
total working
experience
or it's also fine to show both variable names and labels.

You got a couple of unofficial solutions to your very sensible
wish. An official solution is:
. codebook , compact // all variables
. codebook exp , compact
Hope this helps
