Dear all,

I apologize in advance for a very rudimentary question ... but I am new to Stata and don't have the syntax mastered yet.

My subjects are classified by two nominal attributes, say X and Y. I run the tabulate procedure

svy: tab X Y , row ci stubwidth(15)

but for the life of me I cannot figure out the syntax of a command to test whether the proportion with Y==A is the same for subjects with X==Often as for those with X==Seldom. I am sure the answer is somewhere in the manuals, but I haven't been able to formulate the question in a way that leads me there.
