 Liwu-

What are you going to do with the coefficients saved from different - bootstrap- commands? If you want to compare them, see: http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2011-02/msg00322.html

The only variables listed in -ereturn list- that you can specify in the -bootstrap- commmand are the "scalars" listed first, not the matrices.

Save the coefficients by specifying them as _b[] variables. Type "help _variables". If you have lots of predictors, you can get all the coefficients by specifying "_b" instead of individual names. See below and the examples in the "help" for -bootstrap-.

If you want to run more than one model, save the results for each model to a different file and then append the results.

sysuse auto, clear
tempfile t1 t2 t3
bootstrap rmse=e(rmse) _b, ///
saving(`t1',replace) rep(10): reg mpg weight turn
use `t1', clear
gen byte model =1
save `t2'

sysuse auto, clear
bootstrap rmse=e(rmse) _b, ///
saving(`t3',replace) rep(10): reg mpg weight turn foreign
use `t3', clear
gen byte model =2
append using `t2'

Thanks, Steve.
It helps me a lot.
Is there any way that I can save this matrix as new variables in the file?
I know I can use the following code:
mat beta=e(b)
svmat double beta, names(matcol)

However, if I want to run another bootstrap and save the e(b) in the
second column (i.e., not overlap the first e(b) in the first column
under the same variables), I have no idea so far. Thanks for your
help.

Thanks,
Liwu
