Hello,
is it possible to copy results of fits and tables into elements of a
matrix?
so that if I have defined in a do-file
res = matrix J(2,7,0)
and I perform
                                                                                
************                                                                                
                                                                                
 xi:logit everparathesia i.study_control i.icbnpreserved,or
i.study_control   _Istudy_con_1-2     (_Istudy_con_1 for study_co~l==C

I can then set
mat[1,1] = 68
mat[1,2] = 27
mat[1,3] = 18
.
.
mat[2,4] = 28
and the, for example
mat [2,5] = .498 (coefficient for study_control)
mat [2,6] = .288 (lower conf. level)
mat [2,7] = .860 (upper cinf. level)
  
Thanks
