Can anyone please tell me what the procedure is to
provide STATA with a p-value (eg .025) and have it
return the corresponding z-score?
------------------------------------------------
 
    help function
points to
    help density function
and here you find -invnormal()-
 
    . display invnormal(0.025)
    -1.959964
 
Prior to Stata 9 the function name was -invnorm()- 
(and it still works).
