" This can happen, I think, if one of the specified variables is
constant."



Let`s check:


*************
capture which estout
if _rc ssc install estout

sysuse auto, clear

local vars /*
 */ "pri mpg disp tr rep78"

//make rep78 constant
replace rep78=4

pwcorr `vars' ,/*
 */  star(.1) bon

qui estpost correlate `vars', /*
 */ matrix

esttab ., not unstack/*
 */  compress noobs /*
 */  star(* 0.10 ** 0.05 *** 0.01)
*************

Probably some of the correlations are missing due to data problems.
This can happen, I think, if one of the specified variables is
constant. -estpost correlate- refuses to post the correlations in e(b)
in this case.
