If you have Stata 10, then maybe the -estimates save- command is of
help. It allows you to save the results of an estimation command in a
file and then later retrieve it
If you are using Stata 8 or 9 then you can use the -estwrite- user
package (which makes use of Michael Blasnik's -estsave- package).
If fact, -estwrite- has an advantage over -estimates save- in that it
can save results from several models in one file and it is also
possible to append models to an existing file.
