The Stata commands ztable, zdemo, zdemo2, ztail and zcalc are available from ATS and can be downloaded over the Internet using the search command (see How can I use the search command to search for programs and get additional help? for more information about using search).
Table 4.2, page 88. The ztable command gives the probability for the mean to the z-score, while the table in the book gives probability above. You can get the book probability by calculating 0.5 minus the probability from ztable.
