st: Re: how to regress and outreg by year?

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

Suggest you use estout:

webuse grunfeld,clear
keep if year < 1940
levelsof year, local(yrs)
eststo clear
foreach y of local yrs {
	eststo: qui reg invest mvalue kstock if year == `y'
}
esttab

You could readily modify this to handle more years (for instance,  
keeping track of the count, and writing a table every five years,  
then clearing stored estimates).
