frmttable to write tables to LaTex

[Elisabeth Maes]

Hi all

I am currently using the user-written command frmttable (ssc install frmttable, by John Luke Gallup) in Stata 12 to create journal-like tables easily. When I include these tables into LaTex, compilation stops after the respective table, which is apparently due to the inclusion of a document (class) statement in the .tex statement by Stata.
After manually excluding these lines, the LaTex compilation works fine, but I would like to know how I can avoid the manually correcting of these .tex files by not including these line a priori. Has anyone any experience with this command and issue?

Many thanks for any suggestions
Elisabeth

In follow-up to my previous post: the .tex file created by the command frmttable has a.o. the following lines of code:

\documentclass{article} \usepackage{dcolumn}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{longtable}
\begin{document}

...
\end{document}

To be able to print several tables created through 'frmttable' I need to get rid of the \documentclass{} and \begin{} and \end{} commands. As I have many tables I want to get rid of these lines automatically. Is there any way to prevent Stata from adding these lines to the .tex file?

Use filefilter.
