Dear Ben,

Many thanks for your prompt reply.

I have another question regarding erest2 and estout (of course the
question is targeted to the whole list).

How can I use eret2 matrix to display the results.

I've tried the syntax below but things did not work as I expected.

sysuse auto, clear

test weight = mpg
mat tmp = r(F) , r(p) , r(df)
eret2 matrix tmp = tmp, replace

estout, cells("tmp")

        .
        tmp
weight  
mpg     
_cons   

estout, stats("tmp")
        .
        b
weight  1.746559
mpg     -49.51222
_cons   1946.069
tmp
