What you are looking for might be -xcontract- (downloadable from SSC), which can produce output Stata datasets with 1 obs per combination of variable values (from 1, 2, 3, 4 or more variables) and data on frequencies and/or percentages. The output datasets (or resultssets) may be listed, written to a disk file, or written to memory, overwriting the pre-existing data. The resultsset can be converted to tab-delimited form by the official Stata -outsheet- command, or converted to tab-delimited or ampersand-delimited or HTML or TeX form by -listtex- (also downloadable from SSC).

I hope this helps.

Roger
