Is there a way to get a similar command but for MLB?

Hi,
I tried the tab2xl but It tells me that I need Stata 15 to run it. I have Stata 14.2.
Is there any other way to export a two variable tabulation from Stata to excel?

I am trying to export a table of 76x76 and it is really frustrating with Stata.
When I use tabulate it provides several different tables.
For example the first table only provide the first 20 rows and the first 20 columns, the second table, the first 20 rows and the 21 to 40 columns... and so on.

I need to be able to see the 76x76 matrix with the counts at the intersections

Thanks

I got the same error message when running the command. I could not find the problem. Can you help me to find the solution for me that the software shows me the result

Thanks

When I tab2xl an empty table, I get an error message. Is there a way around this?

Hi, thank you so much for your command tab2xl, it is so helpful.
However, I've got the same problem 'option open not allowed' error massage reported.
In my personal computer, it works fine. But in my company, Stata is shared in network and it doesn't work. I ask for an update to get Stat 15.1 but the problem remains.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Chuck,
Super useful! Really liked the part on how to specify columns, using char(64+...). I wish Stata would allow Cell(x, y) syntax (as in VBA). When the number of columns is larger than 26 (beyond column Z), one has to do more, such as using the mod function to decide what the double letters should be. Or is there a simpler way doing ? One of the data that I worked with has more than a couple hundred columns.

"Actually regression does assume the variance is constant but since we are working the logs, that amounts to assuming that Var(yj) is proportional to yj"

I've been looking for a reference on that point exactly. Is there a source that elaborates/proves that point?

then, after you get your matrix , you can use mat2txt

Re: Estimation under omitted confounders, endogeneity, omitted variable bias, and related problems

I am writing this blog and would like to get somebody's help me with 2sls and 3sls in stata.

Here is my question

Suppose we investigate the link between Corporate social responsibility and corporate financial performance of several firms. We assume that OLS estimates are biased. So, we decide to go for 2SLS as it can control endogenity problem.

Suppose we have panal data (balance dataset from 2000 to 2005).

Suppose we write our OLS as

FP (financial performance) = CSR index + Size + Risk + error (1)

As you explained in your papers, this OLS model still suffer from endogeneity problem due to (1) unobservable omitted variables and (2) reverse causality.

So we use 2sls to address this endogenity issue. We think CSR in above equation is endogenous and we do not have propoer instrument to it. But since we have panel data, we take lag value of CSR as our instrument.

So we write our 2sls ad

csr index = FP + CSR (t-1) + error (2)

FP = CSR index + CSR (t-1) + Size + Risk + error (3)

One of my question is, how we write 3sls equation in this case and how to write stata codes for 2sls and 3sls for this example. Could you please help me?

There is not a webscraper for MLB data because there really is no need for one. There are several websites that store data in text format. For example, go to

http://www.seanlahman.com/baseball-archive/statistics/

and download a .zip file of .csv data. You can use import delimited to load the data into Stata.

I believe this to be a file system permissions issue. You might want to email tech-support@stata.com so that we can track down how to fix it.

Can you show me the command you used and maybe a describe of the data?

What model would be estimated if you specify a continuous variable after "_all:"? For example, could you please let me know what the following command would do?
xtmixed math parented public || _all: public, nocons
Does it allow the coefficient of "public" to have a random component across all observations? i.e., will it estimate the following model:
math_ik = a*parented + b_ik*Public
Thanks for the help.
