st: xml_tab with interactions

["Ben Hoen" <bhoen@lbl.gov>]

Hello Stata Listers,

I have a question about xml_tab.  I am having trouble getting it to export
interacted terms.  Does anyone have a solution or a workaround?

Here is some problematic example code:
sysuse auto, replace
reg price c.mpg#foreign weight
eststo model1
xml_tab model1

Which returns:
. xml_tab model1

foreign#c:  operator invalid
r(198);

yet when I use estout I get:
. estout model1, var(17)

------------------------------
                        Model1
                             b
------------------------------
0b.foreign#c.mpg     -87.42007
1.foreign#c.mpg       36.07147
weight                 2.70761
_cons                -1057.949
------------------------------

Any suggestions?
