Yu, Binbing (IMS) <[email protected]> wants to know if -svy- is supported by the
-zip- and -zinb- commands:

The following is true for Stata 8 and Stata 9, although Stata 8 requires an
extra -score()- option in the call to -zip- (and -zinb-).
While -zip- and -zinb- do not yet have a counterpart for survey data analysis,
you can use -suest- with the -svy- option to get linearized variance estimates
according to the design characteristics in your -svyset-.
For example say the sampling weight variable is -sampwgt-, then you can do
something like:
. svyset ... [pweight=sampwgt], ...
. zip ... [iweight=sampwgt], ...
. suest ., svy
The name of the 'pweight' variable in -svyset- must match the 'iweight'
variable used in -zip- (and -zinb-).
