If the 2 regression models are fitted to the same set of data, then you
should probably use -suest- (part of official Stata). If the 2
regression models are fitted to different sets of data, then you can use
-metaparm- and -parmby-, which are part of the -parmest- package,
downloadable from SSC. Both of these solutions can produce confidence
intervals for the difference between 2 log odds ratios, or the ratio
between 2 odds ratios, and not just P-values for the significance of the
difference.

I hope this helps.

Subject: st: comparing logistic regression coefficients between models

I would like to compare coefficients - on the same independent variable
- 
between two nested logistic regression models using STATA.  I would like
to 
test whether the two coefficients are significantly different from one 
another.  In SAS this can be done using the proc iml commands.  I was 
wondering if anyone has worked up some STATA commands. Clogg et al. 1995
in 
AJS describe the statistics.
