st: coding for weighting factor variable -weight-

Dear statlisters,
I create a variable "Germany" but when the whole country is taken as
the unit of analysis (rather than eastern and western states), a
design weight is necessary: weighting factor for Western Germany:
1,23; weighting factor for Eastern Germany: 0,55.
As the help weight command did not solve my problem, I would be v.
thankful if someone could tell me how to code that in STATA. Many
thanks, David
