Two notions of "byability" are being mixed up in this thread: One is the -by
:- prefix ([D], p. 21) that is allowed with most Stata commands. The other
one is more like the -over()- option allowed with commands like -mean-.
-tabstat- allows both, with the former one being able to handle a -varlist-
with more than one member, as shown in my earlier example, and the latter
(also called -by()- in -help tabstat-) being able to take only a single
-varname-...

I actually don't use -tabstat- and cannot use it without looking it up.
What I meant was that -outreg2- itself is -byable- in the following way:
sysuse auto, clear
gen white=cond(uniform()>.5,1,0)
gen black=cond(white==1,0,1)
gen male=cond(uniform()>.5,1,0)
gen female=cond(male==1,0,1)
egen group=group(black female)
bys male black: outreg2 using myfile, sum(log) eqkeep(mean N) /*
*/ drop(white female male black) excel replace
