There are a number of solutions available to get a stata regression
output into LaTeX. If you only want one single regression, outtex
provides a nicely formatted, if somewhat old, LaTeX code with
sufficient features for most users. However, I almost exclusively
report multiple versions/models which means I want to report them in
multiple columns, one model per column. There are, to the best of my
knowledge, two ways to do that. For the direct stata to LaTeX route
there is the est2vec+est2tex package. The other option is to use
outreg to get the output into Excel (actually it is only a tab
separated text file) and then use the Excel2TeX macro to output into
LaTeX.
I too nearly always need to produce tables with results from multiple
regression models. However, I usually use a third way, namely what
Nick Cox calls the "resultsset approach", with the -parmest-,
-dsconcat- and -listtex- packages, all downloadable from SSC. To find
out more about these, type in Stata
findit enduser
and Stata will take you to my website, where you can download a
pre-publication draft of Newson (2003).
The resultsset approach also allows tables of percentages and summary
statistics using -xcontract- and -xcollapse- (also on SSC). Also,
-listtex- allows the user to produce Plain TeX, HTML and even
Microsoft Word tables, as well as LaTeX tables.
I hope this helps.
