Hi Martin,

Yes, I adapted a program you created for me for continuous variables using:
    mean1 (sd1)   mean2 (sd2)   p-value (from t-test).
Using the same format but for discrete variables instead with:
    N1(colpercent1) N2 (colpercent2)  p-value (from chi2) format.


I will look into estout/xml_tab. Thank you for your suggestions.

Eduardo
