Daniel - That's because I was trying to implement -tostring- by hand! 

Thanks for making me aware of it.

Changing

. gen ru = round(u,.01)

to 

. tostring u ,g(ru) format(%9.2f) force

in your example, might be what you are looking for. However, I do not see how this is "too much work", so probably I don't see the point.
