I simply want to graph the mean obesity proportion in my data over time by gender. In Stata I have the following. How can I make this into a line graph where I am graphing the trend in proportion obese over time? I really just want to graph the means below with year on the X-axis and proportion obese on the Y by gender. So for 1987, 12 percent of females were obese and 11.9 percent of males were obese. that would be the data point for 1987 etc. > Can anyone help? > thanks, > Susan * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
