st: changing limits of histogram bins
I am trying to create a frequency histogram where bins consist of cuts of a 
variable (proportion of observations therefore range [0,1]) in 0.1 bins 
sizes.
In Stata v9 using histogram..., width(0.1) start(0(0.1)1)  the bins appear 
to be constructed [0,0.1) [0.1 ,0.2) ... & finally [0.9,1]
Is it possible to change the bin limits (0,0.1] (0.1,0.2] so that the upper 
limit is exclude from the bin?
Or should I just reset the bin limits  for example ...,width(0.1) start 
(0(0.10001)1) xlab(0(0.1)1)?
thanks Richard Hiscock
