Dear Austin:
Thank you for your help. Your second suggestion is the good one.
I would like to have the rows with the same common meanings across tables.
With -tabout-, I get the second table below the first one. My question was about having the second table on the right of the first.
Of course, the first column including the different categories would be common to both tables.
Best regards
Herv�

Do you want something that looks like:
Repair |
Record |
1978 | Freq. Percent Car type | Freq. Percent
-------+-------------------- ----------+---------------------
1 | 2 2.90 Domestic | 52 70.27
2 | 8 11.59 Foreign | 22 29.73
3 | 30 43.48 ----------+---------------------
4 | 18 26.09 Total | 74 100.00
5 | 11 15.94
-------+--------------------
Total | 69 100.00
or do you want the rows to have some common meaning across tables
(e.g. aligning Foreign with 1 and Domestic with 0, so the z-axis, if
you will, has a physical interpretation of some kind)?
If you don't care so much about alignment, you could just
. tab var1, matcell(m1) matrow(r1)
. tab var2, matcell(m2) matrow(r2)
and then use a -file- command with row and col -forv- loops to write
out the matrices. Formats, etc, could also be added inside the loops.
