st: outreg2, tab option? + logout (re multi-way contingency tables in Stata)

[Pamela Oliver <pamelaoliver1180@gmail.com>]

This is a reply to Roy Wada's reply yesterday (sorry, I get digest  
version, cannot reply directly to a single message):
1) "You can use the -tab- open of -outreg2- to produce a table of 1-way, 
2-way, 3-way, or n-way tabulation. . . . .
* example of 4-way tabulation:

sysuse auto, clear
egen mileage=cut(mpg), group(10)
egen paid=cut(price), group(3)
outreg2 mileage paid foreign rep using myfile, see replace tab stats(coef)
outreg2 mileage paid foreign rep using myfile, see replace tab

" [end quoted text]

I experimented with this syntax and got the error message: "option tab 
not allowed." When I run a regular outreg2 (i.e. after a regression), it 
works fine.  I'm running Stata 10 and update query says everything is up 
to date. You say the tab option is not currently documented; it is also 
not currently implemented, or is there some way to locate it?

2) The logout syntax you pointed to in your next post "logout from ssc", 
on the other hand, DID work. I was able to locate it through findit and 
tested it a bit. It isn't perfect, but I can see it saving me a LOT of 
work in some of the things I do.  So thank you.
