Ricardo,

Sorry to miss your earlier post.

In the new version of -outreg-, you _can_ create two tables that are each merged from 2 regressions and write them to the same document.  The key is to avoid a -using- statement until you write each table to the document.  This is because each -outreg using filename, replace- overwrites the existing Word file.  

In simplest form, the code is like this:

. sysuse auto, clear
. regress mpg  weight
. outreg
. regress mpg  weight if foreign==0
. outreg using auto, merge replace  	// write first table to the file auto.doc

. regress mpg  weight
. outreg
. regress mpg  weight if foreign==1
. outreg using auto, merge addtable  	// add second table to the file auto.doc

I also simplified your -outreg- options a bit.  -se- is a synonym for -stats(b se)-.  -sdec(2,2)- is equivalent to -sdec(2)- (or to -bdec(2)- in this case with -se- since -bdec- applies to standard errors as well as coefficients).  -bfmt(f)- removes the comma for thousands from the default -bfmt(fc)- , but the default number format is already fixed format.  I think you want column titles of -ctitle("",All)- because -ctitle(All)- will place "All" above the variable names in the first table column, not above the regression coefficients.  The same is true for -ctitle("",Domestic)- in the second -outreg- call.

Modifying your code below:

. sysuse auto, clear
. qui regress mpg  weight
. qui outreg, nosubstat se nostar  ctitle("",All) sdec(2) bfmt(f)
. qui regress mpg  weight if foreign==0
. qui outreg using auto, nosubstat se nostar ctitle("",Domestic) sdec(2) bfmt(f) merge replace

. qui regress mpg  weight
. qui outreg, nosubstat se nostar ctitle("",All) sdec(2) bfmt(f)
. qui regress mpg  weight if foreign==1
. qui outreg using auto, nosubstat se nostar ctitle("",Foreign) sdec(2) bfmt(f) merge addtable
