Customize reproducible tables using Stata

4 days 3–4 hours daily

Presenting results effectively is a crucial step in statistical analyses. Previously introduced in Stata 17 and 18, you can now create publication-quality tables using Stata’s built-in tools. These tools include the reimagined table command, the new etable command, the new dtable command, and the new collect suite of commands. These are all based on the collect system and can be used independently or collaboratively.

In this course, you will learn how to incorporate results such as summary statistics or regression results into tables and into complete reports. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to customize the layout, formatting, and style of tables and export them to Word^®, Excel^®, LaTeX, HTML, and other formats. You will also be able to incorporate tables into full reports, including Stata results, graphs, and customized text in Word and Excel.
