st: Direct standardization of means

[Isabelle Peytremann Bridevaux <Isabelle.Peytremann-Bridevaux@hospvd.ch>]

Hello,

I have individual level data and would like to use direct
standardization (dstdize command) to adjust means (values from 0
to max) for age (categorical) and sex (0/1). 
However, it is not possible to do this because it seems that problems
arise when the program tries to calculate the standard errors (= our
supposition).

A way to go aroung this is to increase the population generated (instead
of gen pop=1, use gen pop=100, for example)
and then multiply the "adjusted rate and CI" by that population
(by 100 in our example) to get the values needed...

Does another solution exist (rather than using this
"trick")?

Thank you very much
