-esttab matrix-: How to remove matrix name from table?

[Klaus Steitzel]

Hi

Using esttab (SSC), I want to display a matrix:

sysuse auto, clear
correlate price mpg headroom, cov
matrix C = r(C)
esttab matrix(C)

This yields this table:

---------------------------------------------------
                        C                          
                    price          mpg     headroom
---------------------------------------------------
price             8699526    -7996.283     285.7209
mpg             -7996.283     33.47205    -2.025361
headroom         285.7209    -2.025361     .7157071
---------------------------------------------------

How do I get esttab to not display the C on top of the table?

Many thanks

Found by trail and error, guided by thinking about what Stata might be equating a matrix to.

. esttab matrix(C), nomtitles

---------------------------------------------------
                    price          mpg     headroom
---------------------------------------------------
price             8699526    -7996.283     285.7209
mpg             -7996.283     33.47205    -2.025361
headroom         285.7209    -2.025361     .7157071
---------------------------------------------------

. esttab matrix(C), mtitles("Hello, world")

---------------------------------------------------
             Hello, world                          
                    price          mpg     headroom
---------------------------------------------------

Thanks so much, I was almost certain that I had tried that one!
