outreg2 gives .doc file as well as .txt file

[Noe Zhou]

I had been using outreg2 to export my results, but every time the command will give a .doc file as well as a .txt file in the same file name. I am only interested in using the .doc file, I am wondering whether there exist options that prevent the command from generating a .txt file. Thanks.

outreg2 uses the.txt files to store its results and get back these results when needed. You can also try asdoc that uses a different method of writing Stata output to MS Word

ssc install asdoc
help asdoc

Hi, Thanks. I will try the command. I developed another way that will erase this files in batch.

local txtfiles: dir . files "*.txt"
foreach txt in `txtfiles' {
    erase `"`txt'"'
}
