Here are two options:

*----------- begin example -----------
sysuse auto
centile trunk-gear_ratio
tabstat trunk-gear_ratio, s(median)
*------------ end example ------------
(For more on how to use examples I sent to the Statalist, see
http://home.fsw.vu.nl/m.buis/stata/exampleFAQ.html )

Hope this helps,
Maarten
