But really Michael, I am not sure whether this is the answer to the
question. Ali seems to be quite happy with his regression, he just wants it
displayed properly. 

So the -sum- option gives him an "unweighted" summary. But Ali, from the
fact that the # of obs is reduced to 69, b/c of 5 missings in "rep78", you
can infer that the weights are indeed respected in the output:

***********
sysuse auto, clear
reg price weight length [iw=rep78]
outreg2 using myfile, replace sum
***********

Dear Ali

   First off, you will want to determine the "kind" of weight that you have.
You can see

http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?pweight

   which talks about the different kinds of weights.

   Say that you determine that your weights are -pweights- and your weight
variable is 
named -wt-. You can use such weights in an OLS regression like this...

. regress y x1 x2 x3 [pw=wt]

I hope this helps,
