It is not a very good idea to state what you would type in SAS without showing a concrete example of the results. That way, only people who use both SAS and Stata -- there are some, but not many -- could possibly answer your question with complete confidence. I will merely guess that -contract- would produce a new dataset of categorical frequencies which you can then export. Also, you want to "make graphs". Advice would be easier if you said what kind of graphs.
