I asked Ronald to send his dataset for a closer look. Upon inspection, it turned out that Ronald was trying to tabulate values of a string variable, and asdoc had problem with that. As a temporary solution, I suggested the following two steps.

encode country, gen(country_new)
where country_new is a new is a new variable with value labels.
Step 2: Now we can use it with asdoc, so to tabulate it and send the output to MS Word, we type:
asdoc tab country_new, replace
