Why not use -predict-?

I would like to create predicted values by multiplying my vector
of estimated coefficients my the matrix of data used in the sample.

I use the following code to extract my vector of coefficients after the
regression:
reg depvar indepvar1 indepvar2

matrix coeffs=e(b)
matrix list coeffs
matrix coeffs = coeffs'
matrix list coeffs
 
I have tried using the following code to extract my data values:
local varnames : rownames(coeffs)
local k = rowsof(coeffs)
matrix values = J(`k',1,1)

Where I am looking for some help is with filling the matrix named values
with the values of each variable for each observation so I can use the
values and the estimated coefficients to generate a predicted value.
