Hi,
I get the sense I am missing something obvious but I cannot see how to create a real HTML or Word table using -dyndoc-. Instead it creates the "text table" as in a Stata log, albeit in an HTML file.
In the examples I have found (e.g.,Convert dynamic Markdown documents to Word or HTML | Stata), the table is in the HTML file, but it is not a real HTML table. It is text.
The same is true using dyndoc to convert to Word.
I realize one can use -collect- and then -collect export- but it is not clear to me how this integrates into -dyndoc- because I do not see how to export to the same file as the -dyndoc- output.
Tables created with -collect layout- appear as text constructions when converted to HTML or Word with dyndoc, as far as I can tell.
Is there some way to convert the standard text-table into a true HTML or Word table using dyndoc?
Or any other tool in Stata to put real tables in-line with code, graphs, etc?
Is the only option to build up the output file using -putdocx- ?
Is there an analogous way to make the result file be HTML rather than Word?
I am looking for something like the result from knitr in R using e.g., kable to make tables...potentially with scroll-boxes and so on... What am I not getting?
Using v18.
Thanks,
Scott
