New Table Command for descriptive statistics and regressions

[Marvin Hanisch]

Dear Statalist,

I am trying to familiarize myself with the new

table

command in Stata 17. To better understand the syntax, I would appreciate a practical example of outputting a standard descriptive statistics table and a regression table. The output I envision would look like the following:

webuse nhanes2, clear

mkcorr ///
    weight age height sex race ///
    , log(descriptive_stats) means mdec(2) cdec(2) num sig lab replace


reg weight sex race
    outreg2 using my_results.doc, replace /// 
        adds(Prob > chi2, e(p), Log-likelihood, e(ll)) /// 
        drop(i.id) nocons noobs /// 
        dec(2) alpha(0.001, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1) symbol(***, **, *, +) /// 
        label ctitle(Model 1) title(OLS Regression) /// 
        addnote(Notes: n = `e(N)')

reg weight age height sex race
    outreg2 using my_results.doc, append /// 
        adds(Prob > chi2, e(p), Log-likelihood, e(ll)) /// 
        drop(i.id) nocons noobs /// 
        dec(2) alpha(0.001, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1) symbol(***, **, *, +) /// 
        label ctitle(Model 2)

Are these types of outputs also possible with the

table

command?

Thanks,

Marvin
