outreg2 comes with auto-digits, which automatically chooses a minimum number 
of significant digits to be displayed. It is supposed to turn off when the 
user asks for a fixed format. This is not happening with -tdec( )- option. 
Until this problem is fixed, you can display additional decimal points by 
using -less( )- option that works with the auto-digits.
