Nick,thanks very much.
In fact, I only need the mean. 
I attemp to save these value as a matrix.However,when the number of variable large,e.g.,100,
the method is unfeasible.
The following codes 
**
clear
input v1 v2 v3
1 1 0
0 0 1
1 0 1
1 1 1
0 1 0
1 1 1
end

forv i=1/3 {
  forv j=1/3 {
  if `i'~=`j' {
    sum  c`i' if c`i'==c`j', meanonly
	mat b=(nullmat(b)\r(mean))
}
}
}

How could I save those value (r(mean) from "sum"
as a column?


Bests,
