Ben,
I am sorry to bother you again.
I have generated labels for each variable in the dta. I can use -label- in the -estout-
easily to display variable labels instead of variable names in the left stub of the table.
However, in the typing you gave me, what I said before could be realized by
"coeflabels(weight "\cf1 weight" mpg "\cf2 mpg") ".
My question is whether I can realize my purpose without repeatedly typing
each label for each variable.
Thank you very much for any help.
Best regards,
Rose

You need to use the -par()- suboption in estout's -cells()- option.
Here's an example:
sysuse auto, clear
reg price weight mpg
local colortbl "{\colortbl;\red255\green0\blue0;\red0\green0\blue255;}"
esttab using test.rtf, replace ///
title(`colortbl'Table 1: blah) ///
coeflabels(weight "\cf1 weight" mpg "\cf2 mpg") ///
cells(b(par("\cf1 " "")) t(par("\cf2 (" ")")))
Coefficients will be in red, standard errors in blue.
b(par("\cf1 " "")) encloses the coefficients in "\cf1 " and "" (note
that there is a blank after \cf1)
t(par("\cf2 (" ")")) prints t-values and encloses them in "\cf2 (" and ")"
