esttab_ label change in stata result window, not in .rtf

[Bila Sasten]

Hello,
my first time using esttab...
Since I can't seem to find my problem anywhere in the forums, I suppose I made a silly but hopefully simple mistakes that someone here spots:
I have created a result table using esttab and stored the results via
esttab using new.rtf, replace
All the results show up nicely. But the results of my options with title, mtitle and coeflabel don't show up in the .rtf. They DO, however, show up in the stata result windows.
What I did:
Stored four models using the eststo command. Then:
esttab M1 M2 M3 M4, se label nonumber title ("title") mtitle ("A" "B" "C" "D") coeflabel (var1 "one" var2 "two") addnotes (explain why I did this and that)

In the .rtf output the se options shows (standard error in parenthesis) but the label options don't. In the stata result window everything is applied.

WHY?

I am endlessly grateful for your ideas.

Cheers,
Bisa

My best guess is you are using two separate lines for the esttab with all the options and esttab writing to a file.
That is:

sysuse auto, clear
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M1
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M2
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M3
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M4
esttab M1 M2 M3 M4,  se label nonumber title ("title") mtitle ("A" "B" "C" "D") coeflabel (var1 "one" var2 "two") addnotes (explain why I did this and that)
esttab using new.rtf, replace

Dont do that.
Keep the output to new.rtf in the same line as your esttab line with all the other options.
That is:

sysuse auto, clear
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M1
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M2
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M3
reg price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight
eststo M4
esttab M1 M2 M3 M4 using new.rtf, replace se label nonumber title ("title") mtitle ("A" "B" "C" "D") coeflabel (var1 "one" var2 "two") addnotes (explain why I did this and that)

When posting code, please be as specific and complete as possible. This will help others see more easily what went worng.
