-fvvarlist-s are still a relatively new concept, so you may have to look at
the names in -mat l e(b)- after the regression and handpick the names for
the time being. -fvunab- does not seem to resolve this, either.

Subject: Re: st: Factor variables and outreg/outreg2

Dear all,
My aim is to obtain a table only for some coefficients (the
interaction terms or factor variables) using -outreg2-, but -outreg2-
does not work with factor variables. I found a thread where the same
problem was discussed on 28 January 2010, but there is no solution
provided.
Any suggestion/fix that could be implemented? Please find an example below.
Thanks
Mirko
