You can select estimates to be tabulated using the * and ? wildcards.
For example, type
eststo clear
sysuse auto, clear
eststo regression: reg price weight mpg
quietly bysort foreign: eststo: estpost summarize price weight mpg
esttab est*, label nodepvar cells( mean(fmt(2)) sd(par fmt(2)) )
If you don't like the "est" prefix, you can change it using the
-prefix()- option in -eststo-. Example:
eststo clear
sysuse auto, clear
eststo regression: reg price weight mpg
quietly bysort foreign: eststo, prefix(descr): estpost summarize price
weight mpg
esttab descr*, label nodepvar cells( mean(fmt(2)) sd(par fmt(2)) )
