Svend is right.
-catplot- on SSC was written as a generalisation of Svend's basic trick.
That is, it counts categories and then shows a graph of the category
counts.
You needn't do it yourself.

13 2006 rapid
14 2002 rapid
i want to produce bar chart ala [G] p. 125, with year as x-axis and
count
of ind_methd as y-axis. however i only wanted rapid and standard to be
shown on the chart. i am just wondering what i need to do to ind_methd
variable to make: graph bar (count) ind_methd, over(year) bargap(-30)
to work to show the graph that i wanted to show.
------------------------------------------------
Something like:
gen x=1
graph bar (count) x if ind_methd != "emerg" , over(ind_methd)
over(year)
