This appears to work in swithing the location of graph 4 with graph 1:
sysuse sp500,clear
xtile g= date, n(4)
twoway bar change date , by(g, rescale ) xlabel(, labsize(*.7))
graph save Graph "C:\Documents and
Settings\scott.merryman\Desktop\Graph.gph",replace
Then open up the Graph.gph file in an editor.
Edit the lines 447-451 that start with __NOLOG__:
__NOLOG__ .graphs[1] =.__Map.K820a880.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[2] =.__Map.K82de008.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[3] =.__Map.K8338df8.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[4] =.__Map.K8392de0.ref
to
__NOLOG__ .graphs[4] =.__Map.K820a880.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[2] =.__Map.K82de008.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[3] =.__Map.K8338df8.ref
__NOLOG__ .graphs[1] =.__Map.K8392de0.ref
save the file as Graph_new.gph and open the file in Stata
graph use "C:\Documents and Settings\scott.merryman\Desktop\Graph_new.gph"

Unfortunately, I need to change the order of appearance - not just insert holes or render down instead of across. I cannot find an option to do this in the graph editor. Am I missing something or do I have to ask the sender to change the underlying categry coding ??
