Note that the program was just updated last week via the SJ
(http://www.stata-journal.com/current.html). The help files at e.g.

view "http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/m/micombine.hlp";
view "http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj5-4/st0067_2/micombine.hlp";
view "http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj7-4/st0067_3/micombine.hlp";

show that -svylogit- (I will guess you are using Stata 8.2 from the
mention of this outdated command) is not one of the supported
commands.

net describe mice, from(http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/m)

shows this advice:

Report problems to the author  (who is _not_ on Statalist).
      Author: Patrick Royston, UK Medical Research Council
      Support: email [email protected]

So you may want to contact the author to see if svy commands are on
his near-term agenda, or if there is a work-around.

However, the dataset is a multiple imputation dataset.  The end result I am looking for is an overall odds ratio that takes into account all 5 multiple imputation datasets and the survey design. (I also will need to be able to use the subpop option as well.)
