You can also copy the information from the Results window
into your word processor. Stata provides three choices from
the Edit menu for copying tables. Click on Edit to look at the
choices.
1. Copy text - Ctrl-C - copies the table as straight text.
2. Copy table - Shift-Ctrl-C - copies the table and
includes tabs where it thinks there should be tabs
3. Copy table as HTML - Shift-Ctrl-Alt-C - copies the
table into HTML format.
You may encounter problems with the second and third
options if you use these. Stata determines if there should be
tabs and may not make the correct decision. You might need
to increase the width of the columns in the output to make sure
that tabs are included. Below is an example of the same table
using the Shift-Ctrl-C
wife/husband 0 25 280 5 310
0.00 8.06 90.32 1.61 100.00
0.00 9.26 44.59 10.20 20.39

Quite a bit of editing is required to make the above table
presentable.
