Attaullah Shah please find the data here.

Seems to me an installation issue, perhaps your copy of asdoc did not install correctly. So try the following

 ssc install asdoc, replace

If the problem still exists, then please share details about your version of Stata.
I am using version 2.1 of asdoc and it produced the following output.

 use "C:\temp\simdat.dta" 
asdoc reg energy_kcal_day accesstsjm

[Samiul Haque]

Attaullah Shah I followed your suggestion, and still getting the same error. I am using STATA SE 11.2

[Attaullah Shah]

asdoc requires version 12 or above for reporting regression results. The reason is that Stata does not have the r(table) in versions lower than 12. asdoc can work with other commands of Stata even if you have Stata 11, but not with the regression commands.

[Samiul Haque]

Attaullah Shah Thank you so much. This works great on an updated version of stata.

[Rebecca Water]

Attaullah, I really appreciate your work - it helped me a lot. I spent hours searching a solution to build a table of means by two categorial variables. This was so easy and user-friendly. Great work!

Yet, I have one question: Is it possible to predetermine the folder the file will be saved in? I found the way to name the file with

save(filename)

but no option for the folder, i.e. my global path.
Thank you!

[Attaullah Shah]

Rebecca Water I can propose two ways in which files can be written to folders using asdoc.



Method 1. Include the folder name on the fly. For example

*Load example dataset
sysuse auto, clear

* Create a folder in C drive if not already created
cap mkdir C:/results

* Now write files directly to this folder
asdoc sum, save(C:/results/filename.doc) replace

Method 2: Use global

*Save the directory path to a global
global folder1 C:/results

* Use this global in the save option
asdoc sum, save($folder1/filename.doc)

Alternatively, you can write both the filename and directory name to a global.

global folder1 C:/results/filename.doc

asdoc sum, save($folder1)

Similarly, you can declare many globals for different directories and write files to these directors with asdoc.

Just want to say first of all thank you for a very great tool!

I do have a question please:

I use the following command bys Group: asdoc tabstat var1 var2 var3 var4, replace stat (N mean min max tstat)

The command works fine but when it exports to work it only shows the results for one group and not the other group (Note: group is a dummy variable taking on the variable 0 or 1).

How do I export results of both groups please?

Thanks
Sarah

I have revised asdoc. The new version of asdoc can be installed from SSC. This specific issue was fixed on June 15, 2019 update.

ssc install asdoc, replace

After installation of the new version, then restart Stata.

Here is one example

sysuse auto, clear
bys foreign : asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk , replace stat(N mean min max tstat)

Correction:
In your code, there is a space between stat and (N mean min max). This will not work.
Please do remember to cite asdoc. To cite:

Tables were created using asdoc, a Stata program written by Shah (2018).

Dear Professor Attaullah

I formatting my pc frequently and install your ado continually, I have some old do file with the next command that now I dont have the expected result when I run it:

asdoc tabulate rep78 foreign,  cell   replace

The result with stata is:

    Repair |

      1978 |  Domestic    Foreign |     Total

But lamentably my word file results its different, option cell was not recognize:

I now that you make changes and improvements frequently to asdoc, this is one of these?

Hello everyone,

I have an issue while I am running the asdoc command. Every time I try to summarize a variable that takes values between 0 and 1, the asdoc command rounds up all the stats (like sd, max, and min) to the nearest integer (0 or 1). The code in STATA works fine, the problem occurs when it has to replicate the table in Word.

I will provide you with an example:

bcuse mathpnl, clear
asdoc sum grexpp, save(example) tzok dec(2) stat(N sd mean)

Could anyone help me to fix this problem?
Thank you so much in advance!

[Alessandro Di Mattia]

Sorry, posted twice.

[Attaullah Shah]

I could not get the bcuse command to work. But using the auto dataset, I can confirm that the values are reported as intended.

sysuse auto, clear
asdoc sum foreign , save(example) tzok dec(2) stat(N sd mean)

Please try the beta version available on my website. If the problem still exists, then please post a data using dataex to reproduce the issue.

To install the beta version

net install asdoc, from(https://fintechprofessor.com) replace

[Alessandro Di Mattia]

Thank you so much, Professor! After installing the beta version, the issue was solved!
