Drop year dummies from the outreg2 table

[salma ktat]

Hi everyone,
Afetr running a regression, I used outreg2 to report my results, but I got all the year dummies in the table. I tried using the drop option to get rid of them but they are still there. I also tried using the keep option with just the dependent, independent and control variables, but, the result is that it also get rid of the coefficient of the independent variable.

quietly regress y x control variables i.year
quietly outreg2 using mydoc, append addtext(Year dummies, YES) keep (y x control variables)

I checked outreg2 and with keep option no year dummies are reported. Do you still face the problem?

Hi attaullah, Thanks for your help. But as I said earlier, when I tried the keep option with just the dependent, independent and control variables, the result is that it also get rid of the coefficient of the independent variable. Thanks.

First, there is no need to add dependent variable to keep. Second, if you post your real code, that will enable to see where it goes wrong.

Thanks. Here is my code quietly regress y x control variables i.year quietly outreg2 using mydoc, append addtext(Year dummies, YES) keep (y x control variables)

Again, it cannot be actual code as the control variables mean two variables in Stata .

Yes I know, but What I mean by control variables is a whole range of variables like firm size ROA etc. tHanks again
