I am very very very new to LaTeX, like I just started understanding what is does yesterday. I am using Stata 15 and wanted to make nice tables.

There is a problem with the code below. I keep getting the error message:

159: Extra alignment tab has been changed to cr.
<template> endtemplate 
l.159 endtabularx

Also, How can I get this all on one page? All and any help is much appreicated.

I would never use tabularx for tables of figures (and I wrote it) it is designed to control line breaking of paragraphs of text within tables, and you have no such entries.

Thank you both for your comments. I'm so grateful. I have been looking online and trying to teach myself from examples but its not going so well...I'm using Stata's command tabout to create a tex file which i then typeset in TeXShop. David, if I do not use tabularx to create a table then can you please suggest what I should be doing and maybe an example I can follow?

David, if I do not use tabularx to create a table then can you please suggest what I should be doing and maybe an example I can follow?

I am very very very new to LaTeX, like I just started understanding what is does yesterday. I am using Stata 15 and wanted to make nice tables.

There is a problem with the code below. I keep getting the error message:

159: Extra alignment tab has been changed to cr.
<template> endtemplate 
l.159 endtabularx

Also, How can I get this all on one page? All and any help is much appreicated.

I would never use tabularx for tables of figures (and I wrote it) it is designed to control line breaking of paragraphs of text within tables, and you have no such entries.

Thank you both for your comments. I'm so grateful. I have been looking online and trying to teach myself from examples but its not going so well...I'm using Stata's command tabout to create a tex file which i then typeset in TeXShop. David, if I do not use tabularx to create a table then can you please suggest what I should be doing and maybe an example I can follow?

I would never use tabularx for tables of figures (and I wrote it) it is designed to control line breaking of paragraphs of text within tables, and you have no such entries.

Thank you both for your comments. I'm so grateful. I have been looking online and trying to teach myself from examples but its not going so well...I'm using Stata's command tabout to create a tex file which i then typeset in TeXShop. David, if I do not use tabularx to create a table then can you please suggest what I should be doing and maybe an example I can follow?

as i mentioned in my comment, your table has more issues as mentioned error (which is solved by my comment):

table is to huge that can be fit on one page, actually it is long two and half page, so you need longtable or ltablex packages for it

rows are not consistent typed; also in case if you have except the first column all other empty, you should always typed all ampersands which define columns

for numbers in i would use S column type

The first row had a wrong number for one of the multicolumn. Anyway, you declared 7 coluns and were using 5, so I reduces their number. I set the 1st column as X type, and used the S column type for the 4 last columns, to align the numbers by the decimal dot. Also, I added some vertical padding between groups of rows. Last, as the table cannot fit on one page, I loaded ltables which brings the advantages of longtable to tabularx. Note that we don't need the center environment: by default, longtables are centred.

Thank you very much, Bernard! I like this table a lot. Can you please explain, what is the (1) at the top of the table associated with? And is it possible to remove it or replace with different text?

Also, when I try the code on my computer the column headers are centered in the middle of the table instead of over the data. How can I fix this? Thank you

The $(1)$ was in your code. As I didn't know what it corresponded to, I didn't touch it. In multicolumn1c(1) you can replace it with whatever you want.

Do you mean you don't obtain the same alignment for the column headers?

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:34

That is correct. The alignment was centered on the entire table. In your helpful example, it was aligned over the 4 columns of the corresponding data.

You have some issues in your given code, for example:

Use longtable instead tabularx here. longtable can span pages, tabularx not.

In your table you are only using 5 columns, so I reduced it to @ ldddd @

longtable needs no center, I deleted it.

to format the numbers in the table I used dcolumn with newcolumntypedD..2

I added the missing & to mark the empty columns in your part header lines like emphMott Haven/Hunts Point & & & & \.

I deleted the wrong &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ because you have only 5 columns and not 9 as you tried to use in this line ...

With the following code

newcolumntypedD..2 % two decimal numbers

Here is my suggestion. I have replaced tabularx by longtable as you a) don't need automatic line breaks of paragraphs and b) have a table that is a lot longer than a single page. Additionally, I have used the caption comand for the caption (and used the caption package in order to control the font of the caption). Lastly, I have also added the missing two columns. If you don't need more columns, you can replace beginlongtable@ l rrrrrrrr@ by beginlongtable@ l rrrr@ and &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ by &multicolumn4c(1)\. I have also replaced km2 by squarekilometre from the siunitx package.

Here is a suggestion on how one could redesign the table. I have removed the repeated information in the first column and combined two rows to one. Additionally, I have used S type columns from the siunitx package in order to align the numbers relative to their decimal separator.

As requested in the comments, I have changed the column header of the first column using multirow:

enter image description here

toprule
multirow2.5=raggedright Food Chances by Neighborhood & multicolumn2cMean & multicolumn2cStd. Dev. & multicolumn2cMin & multicolumn2cMax \

Another thought is to change how I'm displaying this information. Following Tufte's suggestion to provide a lot of information I choose this format but maybe you all have another suggestion. I could create 3 separate tables that each show only one type of food chance category. Would that be better?

@BRB: How you should present your data heavily depends on how you want to discuss them. I have however edited my answer to also include a suggestion how you could reduce the amount of text in the first column.

Thank you for helping rethink the structure. I have been trying to add the header "Food Chances by Neighborhood" above the column of Mott Haven...but keep failing. What am I doing wrong? multicolumn8@lFood Chances by Neighborhood \ & multicolumn2cMean & multicolumn2cStd. Dev. & multicolumn2cMin & multicolumn2cMax \ cmidrule(lr)2-3 cmidrule(lr)4-5 cmidrule(lr)6-7 cmidrule(lr)8-9 & total & per squarekilometre & total & per squarekilometre & total & per squarekilometre & total & per squarekilometre\

as i mentioned in my comment, your table has more issues as mentioned error (which is solved by my comment):

table is to huge that can be fit on one page, actually it is long two and half page, so you need longtable or ltablex packages for it

rows are not consistent typed; also in case if you have except the first column all other empty, you should always typed all ampersands which define columns

for numbers in i would use S column type

as i mentioned in my comment, your table has more issues as mentioned error (which is solved by my comment):

table is to huge that can be fit on one page, actually it is long two and half page, so you need longtable or ltablex packages for it

rows are not consistent typed; also in case if you have except the first column all other empty, you should always typed all ampersands which define columns

for numbers in i would use S column type

The first row had a wrong number for one of the multicolumn. Anyway, you declared 7 coluns and were using 5, so I reduces their number. I set the 1st column as X type, and used the S column type for the 4 last columns, to align the numbers by the decimal dot. Also, I added some vertical padding between groups of rows. Last, as the table cannot fit on one page, I loaded ltables which brings the advantages of longtable to tabularx. Note that we don't need the center environment: by default, longtables are centred.

Thank you very much, Bernard! I like this table a lot. Can you please explain, what is the (1) at the top of the table associated with? And is it possible to remove it or replace with different text?

– BRB
Apr 27 at 21:21

Also, when I try the code on my computer the column headers are centered in the middle of the table instead of over the data. How can I fix this? Thank you

– BRB
Apr 27 at 21:30

The $(1)$ was in your code. As I didn't know what it corresponded to, I didn't touch it. In multicolumn1c(1) you can replace it with whatever you want.

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:32

Do you mean you don't obtain the same alignment for the column headers?

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:34

That is correct. The alignment was centered on the entire table. In your helpful example, it was aligned over the 4 columns of the corresponding data.

Thank you very much, Bernard! I like this table a lot. Can you please explain, what is the (1) at the top of the table associated with? And is it possible to remove it or replace with different text?

– BRB
Apr 27 at 21:21

Also, when I try the code on my computer the column headers are centered in the middle of the table instead of over the data. How can I fix this? Thank you

The $(1)$ was in your code. As I didn't know what it corresponded to, I didn't touch it. In multicolumn1c(1) you can replace it with whatever you want.

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:32

Do you mean you don't obtain the same alignment for the column headers?

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:34

That is correct. The alignment was centered on the entire table. In your helpful example, it was aligned over the 4 columns of the corresponding data.

The first row had a wrong number for one of the multicolumn. Anyway, you declared 7 coluns and were using 5, so I reduces their number. I set the 1st column as X type, and used the S column type for the 4 last columns, to align the numbers by the decimal dot. Also, I added some vertical padding between groups of rows. Last, as the table cannot fit on one page, I loaded ltables which brings the advantages of longtable to tabularx. Note that we don't need the center environment: by default, longtables are centred.

Thank you very much, Bernard! I like this table a lot. Can you please explain, what is the (1) at the top of the table associated with? And is it possible to remove it or replace with different text?

Apr 27 at 21:21

Also, when I try the code on my computer the column headers are centered in the middle of the table instead of over the data. How can I fix this? Thank you

The $(1)$ was in your code. As I didn't know what it corresponded to, I didn't touch it. In multicolumn1c(1) you can replace it with whatever you want.

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:32

Do you mean you don't obtain the same alignment for the column headers?

– Bernard
Apr 27 at 21:34

That is correct. The alignment was centered on the entire table. In your helpful example, it was aligned over the 4 columns of the corresponding data.

You have some issues in your given code, for example:

Use longtable instead tabularx here. longtable can span pages, tabularx not.

In your table you are only using 5 columns, so I reduced it to @ ldddd @

longtable needs no center, I deleted it.

to format the numbers in the table I used dcolumn with newcolumntypedD..2

I added the missing & to mark the empty columns in your part header lines like emphMott Haven/Hunts Point & & & & \.

I deleted the wrong &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ because you have only 5 columns and not 9 as you tried to use in this line ...

With the following code

usepackagetabularx
usepackagelongtable

You have some issues in your given code, for example:

Use longtable instead tabularx here. longtable can span pages, tabularx not.

In your table you are only using 5 columns, so I reduced it to @ ldddd @

longtable needs no center, I deleted it.

to format the numbers in the table I used dcolumn with newcolumntypedD..2

I added the missing & to mark the empty columns in your part header lines like emphMott Haven/Hunts Point & & & & \.

I deleted the wrong &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ because you have only 5 columns and not 9 as you tried to use in this line ...

Here is my suggestion. I have replaced tabularx by longtable as you a) don't need automatic line breaks of paragraphs and b) have a table that is a lot longer than a single page. Additionally, I have used the caption comand for the caption (and used the caption package in order to control the font of the caption). Lastly, I have also added the missing two columns. If you don't need more columns, you can replace beginlongtable@ l rrrrrrrr@ by beginlongtable@ l rrrr@ and &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ by &multicolumn4c(1)\. I have also replaced km2 by squarekilometre from the siunitx package.

Here is a suggestion on how one could redesign the table. I have removed the repeated information in the first column and combined two rows to one. Additionally, I have used S type columns from the siunitx package in order to align the numbers relative to their decimal separator.

Another thought is to change how I'm displaying this information. Following Tufte's suggestion to provide a lot of information I choose this format but maybe you all have another suggestion. I could create 3 separate tables that each show only one type of food chance category. Would that be better?

@BRB: How you should present your data heavily depends on how you want to discuss them. I have however edited my answer to also include a suggestion how you could reduce the amount of text in the first column.

Thank you for helping rethink the structure. I have been trying to add the header "Food Chances by Neighborhood" above the column of Mott Haven...but keep failing. What am I doing wrong? multicolumn8@lFood Chances by Neighborhood \ & multicolumn2cMean & multicolumn2cStd.

Here is a suggestion on how one could redesign the table. I have removed the repeated information in the first column and combined two rows to one. Additionally, I have used S type columns from the siunitx package in order to align the numbers relative to their decimal separator.

Another thought is to change how I'm displaying this information. Following Tufte's suggestion to provide a lot of information I choose this format but maybe you all have another suggestion. I could create 3 separate tables that each show only one type of food chance category. Would that be better?

@BRB: How you should present your data heavily depends on how you want to discuss them. I have however edited my answer to also include a suggestion how you could reduce the amount of text in the first column.

Thank you for helping rethink the structure. I have been trying to add the header "Food Chances by Neighborhood" above the column of Mott Haven...but keep failing. What am I doing wrong? multicolumn8@lFood Chances by Neighborhood \ & multicolumn2cMean & multicolumn2cStd.

Here is my suggestion. I have replaced tabularx by longtable as you a) don't need automatic line breaks of paragraphs and b) have a table that is a lot longer than a single page. Additionally, I have used the caption comand for the caption (and used the caption package in order to control the font of the caption). Lastly, I have also added the missing two columns. If you don't need more columns, you can replace beginlongtable@ l rrrrrrrr@ by beginlongtable@ l rrrr@ and &multicolumn4c(1) & multicolumn4c \ by &multicolumn4c(1)\. I have also replaced km2 by squarekilometre from the siunitx package.

Here is a suggestion on how one could redesign the table. I have removed the repeated information in the first column and combined two rows to one. Additionally, I have used S type columns from the siunitx package in order to align the numbers relative to their decimal separator.

As requested in the comments, I have changed the column header of the first column using multirow:

Another thought is to change how I'm displaying this information. Following Tufte's suggestion to provide a lot of information I choose this format but maybe you all have another suggestion. I could create 3 separate tables that each show only one type of food chance category. Would that be better?

@BRB: How you should present your data heavily depends on how you want to discuss them. I have however edited my answer to also include a suggestion how you could reduce the amount of text in the first column.
