Subject: st: t-tests for differences in means using pweights


Hello All,
Please help with a simple problem that's giving me troubles.  I'd like to do
some basic t-tests for differences in means on variables from one year of a
survey to the next.  I understand the "t-test" procedure does not allow for
pweights, and I can't seem to locate any other commands that will work.  The
"svy" commands do not seem to be doing what I need.  Any thoughts out there?
Thanks in advance.
