 ...and do a combination of three twoway bar graphs:
twoway bar count points if points <= 6 || bar count points if points ==
7 ||
bar count points if points >= 8 & points <= 20

Using the "color" option for each graph I always get error R198 "option
color() not allowed". Code Example: 
twoway bar count points if points <= 6, color(red) 

Im using Stata 9.2 (Aug 2006-Version) on Windows XP.

I use Stata 9.2 on Windows XP, too, and the following works perfectly:

clear
set obs 21
gen points = _n-1
gen count=round(50*uniform())

twoway                                            ///
  (bar count points if points <= 6, color(red))   ///
  (bar count points if points == 7, color(green)) ///
  (bar count points if points > 7, color(blue))

It also works with the || notation. So I have no clue as to the nature
of your problem.
