You might like to use the -parmest- package, downloadable from SSC using
the -ssc- command, or from my website at
http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/
using the -net- command. The -parmest- package creates an output dataset
(or resultsset) with one observation per parameter (or one observation
per parameter per by-group), and data on the parameter estimates,
standard errors, confidence limits, P-values, and other parameter
attributes optionally specified by the user.

I hope this helps.

Roger

Subject: st: Writing parameter estimates to a file

I want to use stata to estimate a model to obtain starting values for a
model that cannot yet be estimated in stata.  Thus, I want to write the
parameters (only) to a file that I can then read into a single-purpose
package that can estimate the model I am trying to estimate.  I have
checked the manual and the statalist archive but I have yet to find how
I
might save the parameter estimates into a file.  I am using stata8.2.

I imagine there might be something like:

save e(b) /path/for/the/file/filename.ext
or
matrix save e(b) /path/for/the/file/filename.ext

but I have not found any such thing.  Any assistance is greatly
appreciated.

Sam
