I interpreted Walt's question slightly differently and since it 
involves quite a bit of "clicking" which is hard to explain in text
I made a movie of how I would solve his questions:

The .do file I used is replicated below:

*--------------- begin example -------------------
cd c:/temp
sysuse auto, clear
gen byte baseline = 1
eststo clear
eststo : logit foreign mpg baseline, nocons
esttab using test, eform rtf replace

predict pr
twoway line pr mpg, sort
graph export Graph.wmf, replace
*--------------- end example ----------------------

Hope this helps,
Maarten

Ps. that it has been a while since I used powerpoint, so I
may well have missed some useful tricks...
