I have some doubts on handing you a loaded gun, but 
you can do this with 

statsby "regress lcresponse lresistnc" _b , by(idnum) 

If you want to keep these results in the same 
data set, do something like 

sort idnum 
save main 
statsby "regress lcresponse lresistnc" _b , by(idnum) 
sort idnum 
merge idnum using main
