Have you looked at the "xtab" command?
Well, I apologize Allin. I made a confusion there.
My purpose is to have a function to only display the matrix - which has been computed in a script - by adding the row and the column names. Is just like when you print a matrix but I need to print an additional row (colum names) as well as an additional column (row names). The result has to be apparently similar to the "xtab" output that's why I called it "cross tabulation output" but no such computation is needed. Is only a matter of displaying a matrix.

Best,
Artur
