Hi,

Sorting in stata is as easy as 

 sort g1 g2 g3 g4 or sort g1 g3 g2 g4 etc.

For more type -   h sort 

Regards
rajesh

Subject: st: sort by permutation

I have a sample of N individuals belonging to 4 sub-groups g1, g2, g3,
g4. I would like to sort my sample of size N  in 24 different
manners, corresponding to all possible permutations of my group
variable
say, {g1,g2,g3,g4}, {g1,g3,g2,g4} {g1,g3,g4,g2}...etc.
Taking a simple exemple for N=10. I have
id group
1    1
2    1
3    2
4    2
5    2
6    3
7    3
8    4
9    4
10  4

one possible sorting among 24 could be
id group
1    1
2    1
6    3
7    3
3    2
4    2
5    2
8    4
9    4
10  4
any help is apreciated
