Hi Statalist,

I am using esttab from SSC in Stata 16.1 to make summary tables of tab (percents) in excel. In the excel cells, it is fomatting the output as ="". For example, using the sample code below it's outputting Domestic frequency in the excel cell as ="52" (visually appears as 52). Is there some way to have the output be a plain number in excel so the cell shows 52 (without the ="")?

Thank you!
