Re: st: AW: esttab - parentheses around semean

[Miranda Kim <mk@mrc.soton.ac.uk>]

Thank you Martin,
I now realise it must be due to the fact that I am exporting it to excel 
and using the "plain" option, as in:
sysuse auto, clear
estpost tabstat price, stat(mean semean)
esttab . using test.csv, replace /*
*/ cells(`"mean semean(par("(" ")")) count"') /*
*/ nonum noobs plain
Do you know if there is a way around this?
Many thanks for your help,
Miranda
