I wrote a program a few years ago to do this. You can download it from my web site. In Stata type:

 

. net from http://biostat-resources.com/stata

 

Then click on  -rndallo- (or net install it).

Subject: st: Generating block randomation schedule using Stata

I want to generate a randomization schedule for a study with 2 arms for a sample size of 800 with a block size of 8, or 100 blocks of 8.  Is there a way to do this in Stata?
