Jennifer,
there is no command for cointegration as such. One defines an OLS regression and then tests the residuals to ensure they are white noise- if they are you're regression is a co-integrating relationship.
On the other hand Johansen's method of testing for co-integration is better but I am not aware that STATA 6 has the capability to test for co-integration using Johansen's method. In fact I'm pretty sure it has no Johansen 'command'.
Use another package, EViews for example if you want to use Johansen's method otherwise you're stuck with OLS and testing residuals
