I think you asked that question before.

Here are two ways:

*------------ begin example -------------
sysuse nlsw88, clear
gen byte black = race == 2 if race < 3

reg wage ibn.black#ibn.occupation, nocons
table occupation black, c(mean wage)
*------------- end example ---------------

Hope this helps,
Maarten
