Thanks a lot for this suggestion. It worked. I did try this earlier.
But here is the issue that I found with what I did earlier. Since I
had lag variables my suest did not work and gave me the following
error.
unable to generate scores for model ratiomodel
suest requires that predict allow the score option
r(322);
So just now I tried creating a lag_variable instead of l.variable
after your email for all the variables and this worked.
Thanks for your suggestion again.

This can be done with the -suest- command. See the (substantively nonsensical) example below:
*-------------begin example--------------------
sysuse auto, clear
reg price foreign
est store regprice
reg mpg weight
est store regmpg
suest regprice regmpg
test [regprice_mean]foreign=[regmpg_mean]weight
*-------------------------end example-----------------------

Subject: st: comparing regression coefficients across models
Dear Statalist.
I have two models say y1 = a + bx1+cx2+e and y2 = a2 + (b1)x3+(c1)
x4+e. I want to compare if b1 = b after running the respective
regressions. I tried to store the estimates and use "test [equation1
name] _b[coefficientname] = [equation2 name] _b[coefficientname]".
I guess that stata stores only the last estimates. also when I use the
above command I get a error
=exp required
r(100);
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Would be grateful for pointers.
Thanks.
