I am running a series of 8 regressions, the results of which I'd like
to append into a table using outreg. When I run it, I get the message
that the file could not be opened after I try to append my 5th column.
When I go to the directory where the results were being saved, the
file is gone.

What I did do to get it to work was write the results from the last 4
regressions into a separate file. And it works fine when I do this.

It seems to me that outreg is limited to 4 columns. Is this true?

Here are the results from the 4th regression:

. reg r8mssallch r8mssall03 ses04 swp04_pct

      Source |       SS       df       MS              Number of obs =      51
-------------+------------------------------           F(  3,    47) =    1.86
       Model |  15.3237824     3  5.10792747           Prob > F      =  0.1498

       Total |  144.606138    50  2.89212276           Root MSE      =  1.6585

. outreg using c:\Data\NAEP\all.txt, bdec(1) rdec(3) sigsymb(*,**,+)

But after the 5th regression:
