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.
