Simple Reports
To create a simple report, from the Stata menu, select Data then Describe Data and, from the next drop-down menu, select List Data. In the pop-up window that appears, click OK. If you would like to use the Stata command window, obtaining a report is even simpler. In the command window, type list and hit return. An example of list output is shown below.
The default Stata listing is for all variables, all records, in the format shown above. For steps in creating a report with a specified number of variables or a given range of records, e.g., the first 25, see our slightly less simple reports page.
