Abstract

Statisticians make their living producing tables (and plots). We present an update of a general family of methods for making customized tables, called the DCRIL path (decode, characterize, reshape, insert, list), with customized table cells (using the package sdecode), customized column attributes (using the package chardef), customized column labels (using the package xrewide), and/or customized inserted gap-row labels (using the package insingap), and listing these tables to automatically-generated documents. This demonstration uses the package listtab to list Markdown tables for browser-ready HTML documents, which Stata users like to generate, and the package docxtab to list .docx tables for printer-ready .docx documents, which our superiors like us to generate.
