Thanks, sts generate does sometimes help but...
Often I want survival at specified time points if no record in my
dataset are at these exact time points then if I used sts generate I
would then have to make a program that 1) keeps only the time points I
want, 2) searches for the closest time point if one doesn't exist that
I want and takes that, or do some sort of calculation between the
closest points higher and lower, which all becomes a bit complicated

It would save me hours of time if I could run sts list and output the
results to a new dataset as strate does.
Looking at the sts ado file I see that Stata just displays local
macros
as it goes along. Would it be possible to add postfile into the ado
file at appropriate points to allow the creation of a new dataset
containing the sts list results?

I think that -sts generate- does much of what you want.
Hope this helps
