-matrix score- will do what you want (except that it creates a variable, not a matrix).

note that -predict- will do this even more directly.

Hello, I would like to create predicted values by multiplying my vector
of estimated coefficients my the matrix of data used in the sample.

I use the following code to extract my vector of coefficients after the
regression:
reg depvar indepvar1 indepvar2

matrix coeffs=e(b)
matrix list coeffs
matrix coeffs = coeffs'
matrix list coeffs
I have tried using the following code to extract my data values:
local varnames : rownames(coeffs)
local k = rowsof(coeffs)
matrix values = J(`k',1,1)

Where I am looking for some help is with filling the matrix named values
with the values of each variable for each observation so I can use the
values and the estimated coefficients to generate a predicted value.

Any help is be greatly appreciated.
