The -graph7- command in Stata 8 uses the Stata 7 Graph
Preferences by default- which in turn uses the Monochrome
scheme.  To access the Stata 7 Graph Preferences in Stata
8, simply type -oldgprefs- in the Command window.

In the Graph Preferences dialogue box, make sure that
the same scheme is being used for the Graph Window, Printer,
and Clipboard.  This will allow you to copy and paste
using the same color scheme seen in the actual graph window.

Once the scheme has been set for each tab in the dialogue
box, try creating your graph again.  You should be able to
just copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the original graph
into Word, since the default filetype for copying graphs
is set to .wmf (Windows Metafile).
