Hi,
I'm a newby in using Stata, but like it very much. A few days ago I
tried the outreg package to export my results to Excel. The export of
coefficients works fine, but the standard errors turn negative when I
use the 'coefastr' option. (The coefastr tag marks the coefficients
with significance levels instead of the se's or t-values.)
It is interesting that -outreg- continues to be the #1 downloaded
program, even though it hasn't been updated in years and is apparently
no longer supported by the author. Since you are a newbie, I suggest
you get off on the right track and try -estout- instead. Most people
think it is at least as good or better as -outreg- and the author
continues to support and update it. I don't know about this
particular issue, but my guess is that any problems in -estout- are much
more likely to eventually get fixed than any problems that exist in
-outreg-.
