In the absence of evidence to the contrary, we have to assume that Wael is a
Stata 11 user, and that he can hence get answers to his questions easily in
the "Remarks" section of the -xtreg- entry in the manuals...

The document that Martin pointed you towards,
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/stat/xtreg.html
refers to "fixed effects". If you are uncertain how to map this terminology
onto "differencing" or "demeaning", you should consult a textbook or the
Stata manual - it's definitely not a Stata-specific question!
