Re: st: Transform table to graph

["Roger B. Newson" <r.newson@imperial.ac.uk>]

The -parmest- package does not produce graphs. However, the -eclplot- 
package (also downloadable from SSC) produces graphs. And the graphs 
that it produces may contain parameters from 1 model, or from several 
models, depending on the dtaset in which it is used.

To produce an output dataset (or resultsset) containing parameters from 
several models, you need to produce multiple -parmest- resultssets for 
the multiple models, and then append them (using -append- in recent 
versions of Stata or the SSC package -dsconcat- in early versions of 
Stata). You can then use -if- to select the parameters you wanted to 
plot, and use -eclplot- to plot them.

Examples of the use of concatenated resultssets appear in the online 
help for -parmest-, which you can view by typing, in Stata,

help parmest

if -parmest- is installed. The online help for -parmest- also contains 
hypertext to Stata Journal articles, and Stata User Meeting 
presentations, about -parmest-.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Roger
