If you want to display that test for each equation separately,
you will probably have to perform these tests -quietly- and
use -display- to display the results in some convenient way.
You can however force Stata to display a test whether the
effects of all covariates in multiple equations are
simultaneously equal to zero. This is done in your -ml model-
statement using the -waldtest()- option.
Hope this helps,
