Regression coefficnt programming names

[Attaullah Shah]

I am trying to write a code for automating regression results to word file. I have discovered that values of coefficients can be obtained through _b[var1] _b[cons], but I have not found any relevant code for the t-statistics of the coefficient or the constant. I know that one can get it by dividing the coefficient on its standard error, but how write a code for that do files.

[Maarten Buis]

That is discussed here:

M.L. Buis (2007), "Stata tip 54: Where did my p-values go?", The Stata Journal, 7(4), pp.584-586.

[Maarten Buis]

Also, did you look at outreg and estout (both from SSC). Type in Stata ssc desc estout and ssc desc outreg.

[Rich Goldstein]

also, you can use the returned table (r(table)); this has been discussed on this list so you can search for it; the t stats are in row 3 and the p-values in row 4 (to see the table, type "mat li r(table)" (without the quotes) after estimating your model)

[Attaullah Shah]

All the suggestions work perfect. Thanks for your answers. The outreg2 and estout are great options, but I need to build custome made table, this is why did not use them.

[Maarten Buis]

outreg (not outreg2) is now the newest command, and it allows for extremely extensive customization. See especially: http://www.stata-journal.com/article...article=sg97_5

Yes I had used frmtable but it had not option for single sample t-test, so I started building my own file

The names undoubtedly are likely to confuse, but

* John Gallup originally wrote outreg. It was first published in 1998 (STB-42) and much later was completely rewritten and republished in the SJ in 2012. It has been since between updated on SSC.

* Roy Wada wrote outreg2 as a revision of outreg which throughout its public history (since 2005) has been distributed through SSC.

These programs are being maintained separately by their authors.

At present, the help for outreg2 carries this wording

The functionality of outreg2 is based on the earlier package outreg, by
John Gallup. Unlike outreg, outreg2 is capable of writing LaTeX-format
tables, as well as ASCII, MS Word and MS Excel.

whereas outreg certainly includes functionality for creating TeX files.
