Hi Stata users,
When generating two-way tables, I couldn't find a way to supress the
total reported at the end of each row.
I usualy use the "tabout" command to generate tables. In the example
below, I do not want the last column reporting 17, 31 and 48. As you
can see, I tried the "ptotal" option but it did not work. Would you
please help me? The version of Stata I have is STATA MP 11 for windows
(32bits). Thank you very much!
