It's not clear what you mean -- your title implies that you want a single 
variable with the coefficients in order (and without the constant).   I'm 
not sure why you want this and think you may want to to tell us more of the 
big picture, but here are two ways to do it, after issuing the command -reg 
y x1 x2 x3-

First approach:
gen coeffs=_b[x1] in 1
replace coeffs=_b[x2] in 2
replace coeffs=_b[x3] in 3

Second Approach:

mat coef=e(b)'
svmat coef

This second approach will create a variable named coef1 that includes the 3 
coefficients in order and then the constant.

If you wanted separate variables to hold the coefficients, then you might 
want to either write a loop or use -statsby- and -merge- the resulting 
dataset back in.  You may need to be more specific if
