Re: st: Question on results export

Thanks for the email. I appreciate it. You are right that I defined
the matrix. I think I missed it when i was typing. here is the
accurate command list.

sysuse auto
regress mpg weight foreign
matrix v = e(V)
svmat v , names(matcol)
outsheet v* using c:\myfile.csv, comma replace

the same sequence does not work with xtdpdsys. I did the following

xtdpdsys (command)
matrix v = e(V)
svmat v, names(matcol)

I get the following error:

* invalid syntax
r(198); *

I would like to use the exported file for other processing. i tried
the command but it just gives the vce matrix overall.


Thanks.
