Hi all,
Ok ...managed to get this to run from a menu item.
Firstly, added the following lines to the profile.do file
window menu append submenu "stUser" "&Name"
window menu append item "Name" "&Fname" "myprog1"
This will create a submenu fname under name in the user menu.
Secondly,
a. created a simple ado file in the ado\personal folder to run a do file
The ado file looks like this:
capture drop program myprog1
program define myprog1
run "C:\Stata8\a.do"
end
b. created a do file in the stata8 folder
The do file looks like this:
local b=c(filename)
_getfilename `"`b'"'
local c=r(filename)
window manage maintitle `c'
This works
But, I have a feeling this is a bit longwinded..
Is there a better way to do it?
Thank You
Rajesh

Hi,
I was trying to get only the filename to display on the title bar. The best
I could come up with is
local b=c(filename)
_getfilename `"`b'"'
local c=r(filename)
window manage maintitle `c'
How can I execute this code automatically on (after?) opening a file?
As a crude option can put a menu item on the tool bar which will run this
program?
I use stata 8.2
Thank you
Rajesh
