Description
-----------------------------------
^svytabform^ requires that the survey-designed variables be identified using sv
> yset

^svytabform^ creates tables of means, standard deviations, and confidence inter
> vals corrected by probability weights 
and put them in the following format:

        |       Item1   |       Item2   |       Item3   |       Item4   |      
>  ....

>  mean

Options         Description
-----------------------------------
^sd^            reports standard deviations
^se^            reports standard errors of means. Either ^sd^ or ^se^ can be sp
> ecified
^ci^            reports confidence intervals
^level^         specifies the level of significance for the confidence interval
> s; The default is 95%
^nototal^       specifies not to report overall statistics when using with by()
^bdec^          specifies the number of digits after the decimal for the standa
> rd deviations and the confidence intervals.
^sdbracket^     puts standard deviations (or standard errors of means) in [] ra
> ther than ()
^cibrace^       puts confidence intervals in {} rather than []
^mtest^         performs t tests on the equality of means (of the current categ
> ory and the rest). 
        By default, the level of significance is indicated by stars 
        (* significant at 10%; ** significant at 5%; *** significant at 1%).
^mtprob^        p-values of the test statistic are included instead of stars.
^mtse^          SEs of the test statistic are included instead of stars.
        Either ^mtprob^ or ^mtse^ can be speficied.
^mtbdec^        specifies the number of digits after the decimal for the p-valu
> es and the SEs of the mean-difference test.
^vertical^      presents variables in the table vertically (the default is hori
> zontally).

Remark
-------
If neither ^sd^ nor ^ci^ is specified, the command report means
