Hello,
I am running regressions using the reg3 command. I want to ouput the results into LaTeX using esttab.
The following code creates a problem for me:
I want to have both equations side by side in a .tex file. It looks like this:
In LaTeX, it then looks like this: 
Compared to the usual esttab output of several separate reg regressions, there is no \multicolumn{1}{c}{...} in the .tex-file that ensures that the content of the column titles with variable names, i.e. "Length (in.)" and "Price", is not in math mode. As you can see, the LaTeX-output is with these variables in math mode.
This leads to problems when I forced to use math mode in variable labels, and, if I were to change these carefulyl, and compatibility issues when I want to esttab normal reg results.
Is there a reason why there is no multicolumn that encloses the variable labels at the top of the columns, and how can I change this?
