I tried this approach before my posting. I could not find the source code in
_svy_summarize and that's when I called in the troops. Apparently others
(who much smarter than me) couldn't follow the trail to the source either.
It makes me feel better on the one hand, but it still leaves me in search of
the code...
Thanks all!

My message is more positive.
. which _svy_summarize
will tell you where the source code is. If it's an ado file,
. viewsource _svy_summarize.adp
will show you inside. See also
