There are multiple sets of add-ons to do this. Two possible approaches are 
the resultssets approach and the resultsspreadsheets approach. Both have 
their advantages and disadvantages.

The resultsspreadsheet approach is used by Benn Jann's -estout- package, 
downloadable from SSC, which can be found by typing

findit estout

or

ssc desc estout

in Stata. The resultsset approach is used by my -listtex- package, which is 
typically used with several other packages such as -parmest-, -xcontract- 
and/or -xcollapse-, also downloadable from SSC. It is summarized in several 
documents, which can be found in Stata by typing

findit resultsset

and/or

findit enduser

I hope this helps.

Roger
