Hi all,
I cannot execute the "intreg" command in Stata, despite my best efforts.
Here is yet another example, which is a slight variation on the 
example already contained in Stata's printed manuals:
http://www.nd.edu/~rwilliam/xsoc73994/intreg2.pdf
The key commands are
webuse womenwage, clear
recode wagecat 
(5=.)(10=5)(15=10)(20=15)(25=20)(30=25)(40=30)(50=40)(51=50), gen(wage1)
recode wagecat(51=.), gen(wage2)
intreg wage1 wage2 age age2 nev_mar rural school tenure
In the above, wage1 gives lower bounds for the intervals. The (5=.) 
sets the lowest bound at negative infinity.  wage2 gives the upper 
bounds.  The (51=.) sets the highest upper bound at positive infinity.
You didn't list the printed Stata manual entry for intreg as one of 
your sources.  I think it is pretty good, and if you have Stata 11 
you should have it as a pdf file.
