st: Categorical variables Names in Regression Output

Hello; 
I am running a regression that uses a string variable as an independent variable.
I encode the string variable using the encode command
encode agency , generate(agency2)
and then i regress 
regress recpm i.agency2
however, when i get the regression results; i get the coded value and not the string values that are much more meaningful.
How can i report the regression results using the actual string variable?
Also; is there a way to output the variables that have a certain  P>|t| , say less than 0.1?
ThanksAyman
