Dear David,

nothing actually, I was just wondering how to do this. Furthermore I have only 200 obs. (100 for each gender). And I also wanted to see differences for other variables as well.Consequently it would be handy if I could just compare all coefficients (including the categorical var.). 

Best,

John
