Problem with esttab and estpost, exporting to latex

[Kol Fang]

Hello all,

I am trying to export my tabstat table to Latex, however, my code only generates an almost empty table in latex with N in it

Here is my code:

eststo clear
eststo: estpost tabstat school_att mom_col pop_col if age<19, by(nsibs) stat(mean)
esttab . using "myfilex.tex", cells("count mean") replace

thank you all

You have the wrong names in the cells() option. This is covered in the estout website tabstat example. I find a good strategy for solving such problems is to see if there is an example on that site that uses the command that I am struggling with.

Here's a working reproducible example:

sysuse auto, clear
estpost tabstat price mpg, by(rep78) stat(mean)
esttab . using "myfilex.tex", cells("price mpg") replace
