Nick,
In this command, X is a numeric variable based on a string one, using
encode command, reason why I don't understand what is going on. Also,
more generally, is it possible to highlight a particular value on a
x-axis?
The second point is that I am looping across MANY datasets to produce
graphs and I want to insert these graphs automatically in Excel or
Word. The point is, Adept (downloadable from the World Bank site),
which is a Stata-based plateform, is doing (it inserts both
pre-formatted tables and graphs in excel) this but the authors, Zurab
Sajaia and Sergiy Radyakin, are not disclosing the stata commands
(embedded in the exe). Maybe, as a wishlist, they can format these
commands to make it general to the users?
Third, I'll try the file command and see what happens.
Thx
