It worked. Thansk! Gabi.
But I still need to seek a convenient way to do this job.
Are there other ways to save the result table in spreadsheet format
immediately after "tabstat command"?
I have another question on "tabstat" command.
I put the option command "save" at the end of "tabstat" command.
.tabstat pop7 pop8 pop9 pop0, by(city) stats(sum) save
I believe that the option "save" will save the result of tabstat somewhere.
I don't know where STATA saved the result. And I don't know how I can pull
out the result either?
Do I misunderstand the function of the option "save"?
Any comments would be helpful.
Thanks.

Why don't you just
preserve
collapse (sum) pop7 pop8 pop9 pop0, by(city)
save myfile, replace
outsheet using myfile.txt
restore
The open the tab-delimited myfile.txt with Excel?
