Re: st: Re: Equivalent to matcell in table

[Tobias Friedli <tobias.friedli@access.uzh.ch>]

I already have a excel file with all the Solver stuff set up to do some optimization on a log likelihood function derived from the matrix. I would like to do it in Stata, but i am just do not have the skills  to programm it in stata, this is why i use excel for the optimization.

If i use the -outfile-  i get a .txt with some tousend rows and 3 colums. But what i want is to have the matrix (as displayed for -table- , i.e 700 rows and 700 colums). how can i do that?
