Hello.

Is there a version of statsby that accepts weights?

Unfortunately, no. However, there is a workaround which should solve Holly's problem. There was a thread on this subject on Statalist in March 2004, and the workaround (thanks to Jeff Pitblado) can be found on the Statalist Archive on

The trick is to wrap your command (with weights) in a program which does not have any weights of its own but which uses them internally to call the command you really wanted to use with -statsby-.

I hope this helps.
