I don't think James wants the prior seven days by individual, so it
seems Nick's suggestion would be the way to go if you prefer not to
use my suggestion form yesterday.

. collapse st, by(day)
. egen m7=filter(... etc.
. sort day
. save m7
. use orig_dta
. sort day
. merge day using m7

James, since you are not using the solution I proposed yesterday, I
presume you are not worried about gaps in days (i.e. missing
days==235)?
