Also, UCLA has a handy guide to SPSS/Stata equivalents:
http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/faq/spss_command_to_stata.htm
If you are a SAS person, see
http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/faq/sas_command_to_stata.htm
For OLS regression, I have more or less parallel discussions of SPSS 
and Stata at
http://www3.nd.edu/~rwilliam/stats1/OLS-SPSS.pdf
http://www3.nd.edu/~rwilliam/stats2/OLS-Stata9.pdf
I used to be all SPSS and now I am pretty much all Stata. A lot of 
old SPSS notes have been moved to optional appendices in my course 
notes. However, I am wondering whether I should keep SPSS around at 
all, because I can't count on old SPSS commands to always work the 
same as they used to. I have this old SPSS program that does some 
major data manipulations and the stupid thing is giving me errors 
now. Eventually I have to either figure out how SPSS syntax has 
changed or rewrite the program using Stata.  Stata is much, much, 
much better about maintaining backward compatibility.

Dear All,
In STATA (version 11), is there an equivalent to the SPSS command
"aggregate" please?
Many thanks in advance for any advice.
Sincerely,
