Dear Professor, I am trying to extract granger causality test table but received the error below. I updated to beta and still received the same error. Could you kindly fix this.

asdocx xtgcause fdi Rpf, replace

“Unknown sub-command xtgcause
If xtgcause is a community contributed program
You can post a request on the asdocx forum for addition of this program to asdocx”

The command xtgcause is not a Stata official command. Hence asdocx is not aware of that. The help file of xtgcause shows that the command leaves scalar in r(), and hence these can be written with flexmat and then exported with asdocx. Here is an example.

The dataset Data_demo.xls used in this example is provided by Dumitrescu and Hurlin at
http://www.runmycode.org/companion/view/42, along with a few results.

        . import excel using Data_demo.xls, clear
        . ren (A-J) x#, addnumber
        . ren (K-T) y#, addnumber
        . gen t = _n
        . reshape long x y, i(t) j(id)
        . xtset id t
        . xtgcause y x, lag(1)

Now create the table from the scalars with flexmat

flexmat reset
flexmat addrow, data(Lag order, `r(lags)', \empty, \empty) row(1)
flexmat addrow, data(W-bar, `r(wbar)', \empty, \empty) row(2) dec(3)
flexmat addrow, data(Z-bar, `r(zbar)', p-value, `r(zbar_pv)') row(3) dec(3)
flexmat addrow, data(Z-bar tilde, `r(zbart)', p-value, `r(zbart_pv)') row(4) dec(3) 
asdocx export

Table: Results

Lag order	1
W-bar	1.291
Z-bar	0.650	p-value	0.515
Z-bar tilde	0.259	p-value	0.796

Thanks. It will be nice to include the code in asdocx going foreword.
Once more, thanks for providing the solution.
Sincerely.
