This is very difficult to answer with any precision. 

I can't comment on the do file, not given here, but the kind of 
functionality you want might be made easier by converting 
it to a program able to accept -if- and -in- restrictions.  
Alternatively, write results to a file and use the 
facilities of a good text editor or scripting language. 

The last part I do not understand at all. What is a datasheet 
in Stata terms? Do you want to manipulate data, or tables 
of data, in Stata or in Excel?
