Thank for that bit. But is there any way to recover the estimated
coefficients for the instruments? Like in XTIVREG?

Kind Regards,
Araceli

I don't know any econometrics really, but I can always quote
Kit Baum, who can't be with us today. He wrote this on
6 August in response to some other instrumental question:

`"You should disabuse yourself of the notion that "this
is an instrument for that"; as frequently mentioned on this list and
in
the cited Stata FAQ, instrumental variables estimators do not work
that
way. All of the Z variables are instruments for all of the included Y
variables."'
