Reporting Standard Errors using esttab to .rtf files

[Ethan Gunn]

Hello,

I am trying to use esttab to produce tables to be exported into a .rtf file. However, despite specifying it in the command, no standard errors appear below the coefficients in the table. Trying it with t-statistics also fails to report anything.

esttab Model1 Model2 Model3 Model4 Model5 Model6 using "Model Table.rtf",
replace cells(b(star fmt(%9.3f))) se(fmt(%9.2f)) legend label mtitle stats(N r2 bic, fmt(%9.0g))
star(* 0.10 ** 0.05 *** 0.01) title ("Table 1")

Table 1

	(1)	(2)	(3)	(4)	(5)	(6)
	Model 1	Model 2	Model 3	Model 4	Model 5	Model 6

It has not pasted very well but as you can see the table, above, that results from the above command does not produce any standard errors in parentheses under the coefficients.

Why might this be? Is there an error in the code?

Thanks, Ethan

I'm not an -esttab- user myself, so I'm just making a guess here based on general Stata principles. I think the problem is that your -se()- option is outside the -cells()- option and needs to be inside it.

Thanks Clyde, that has resolved it.
