Re: st: Esimates Table commend

It is not clear at all what exactly "did not work" in your case. We
can't know what went wrong if we can't see what you did. Perhaps have
a look at the Statalist FAQ for some good advice on posting.

I don't think there are any problems with -estimates table- in the
context you describe. Consider the following example:

*-------------------------
clear
sysuse auto
forval i=1/5 {
	gen w`i'=runiform()
}
gen obs=_n
svyset obs, brrweight(w*)

svy brr: reg price mpg
est sto m1
svy brr: reg price mpg trunk
est sto m2

estimates table m*, b(%6.1f) se(%6.1f)
*-------------------------

which works just fine.
