st: Retrieving coefficients using the xtreg command

[John de Figueiredo <jdefig@MIT.EDU>]

I'm using Stata8.

I want to run a fixed effects (on firmid) regression using the xtreg 
command.  There are 10000 firms.
I then want to used the fixed effects coefficients as dependent variables 
in a second regression (see David Card, Alan Krueger, Journal of Political 
Economy, 1992, for example).

I run the regression:

xtreg expend sales rd advertise, fe i(firmid)

Is there a way to retrieve the fixed effects coefficients for each of the 
10000 firms using the xtreg command?

If not, is there a way to use the xi:regress command and force it to omit a 
particular reference case (firmid==10) in order to get the coefficients?

Is there a different (easier) way to do this?

Thanks
John
