RE: st: Could Stata give the variance of the parameter estimates?

[jjc.li@utoronto.ca]

Thank you all! -matrix list e(v)- doesn't work but -estat vce- works  
in my version.

There is another question. I am going to use these var and covar to  
calculate the standard error for other factor (let's say SE(Mij)),  
according to a given fomular. But how could I tell if the Mij is  
significant at the 5% level, according to the calculated SE(Mij)?

Thanks!
