RE: st: estout output option and table in word processor

["Jun Xu" <mystata@hotmail.com>]

With some trial and error, I just found out that only if I use style(tab) 
option plus if I select only the part without legend (*P<.05, **P<....), I 
will be able to let word read all columns.

> bic aic) varlabels(_cons Constant) legend replace style(tab)
