st: estout append - new column

["Braunfels, Philipp (Stud. SBE / Alumni)" <P.Braunfels@student.maastrichtuniversity.nl>]

Dear Statlisters,
I am seeking for your advice once more. Currently I am trying to store several regression outputs to an excel file using -estout- with the "append" option. However, "append" in conjunction with estout always adds the second regression output below the first one. However, I would like that the second regression output is added to the right column of the first output:

I want:
output1  output2  output3

Estout does:
output1  
output2 
output3


I used "outreg" instead, which does exactly what I want if I use the option "merge". However, when I use outreg it just writes strange codes in txt files (not like estout which writes nice readable outputs). That´s why I want to use estout again.
Below is an example of my outreg output using merge:
