Dear David,

Thanks for your response. What do you think would be a better approach than histograms in this case?

I am not sure histograms are appropriate in this case. But if I
misunderstood, try Austin Nichols' -byhist-, available from SSC, which
allows pweights "at user's own risk" and will plot multiple histograms for
different categories in the same panel.

Or see http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2007-10/msg00327.html .
