Type mismatch and outreg2

[Marco Giansoldati]

Dear All,

I am trying to obtain the results of a regression by making use of the following commands on Stata 14.0.:

quietly xtreg dm d.iad d.rmp nber_crisis, fe
estimates store fixediad0
outreg2 using nolag.xls, e(sigma_u sigma_e rho N rmse theta r2_o r2_b r2_w) se dec(8)
quietly xtreg dm d.iad d.rmp nber_crisis, re
estimates store randomiad0
outreg2 using nolag.xls, e(sigma_u sigma_e rho N rmse theta r2_o r2_b r2_w) se dec(8)
hausman fixediad0 randomiad0

I am able to obtain the results of the first outreg2, but when I run the second outreg2, which is aimed to capture the results of the random effects model, I obtain the following error message:

type mismatch
r(109);

I double checked for typing mistakes, but there seem to be absent.

I run two similar regressions:

quietly xtreg dm L.dm d.gdpv L.d.gdpv d.rmp L.d.rmp nber_crisis, fe
estimates store fixedgdpv
outreg2 using onelag.xls, e(sigma_u sigma_e rho N rmse theta r2_o r2_b r2_w) se dec(8)
quietly xtreg dm L.dm d.gdpv L.d.gdpv d.rmp L.d.rmp nber_crisis, re
estimates store randomgdpv
outreg2 using onelag.xls, e(sigma_u sigma_e rho N rmse theta r2_o r2_b r2_w) se dec(8)
hausman fixediad randomgdpv

but there is no such type of error.

I am wondering, but I am probably wrong, that the problem has to do with the variables.

Any suggestion will be strongly appreciated.

Thank you.

Dear All,

I solved the problem. By using ereturnlist I noticed that the scalard do not include theta and if I exclude it from the list of the information provided by outreg2 it works.

When I ran the regressions without quietly I received a warning to check for the existence of theta, which seems to create a problem when I, instead I am using it..
