Use the -eclplot- package, downloadable from SSC. (Type -ssc install 
eclplot- to install this.) The command you use should be something like

eclplot or ormin ormax gene

You can, of course, add options (there are many to choose from). Or you can 
even construct the command using the -eclplot- dialog, which is probably 
easier for most people.

I hope this helps.
