What exactly do you mean by "saving" the CIs?
Roger Newson suggested the package -parmest- that writes the results of
the latest estimation into Stata dataset.
May be it's too basic, but if you need something simpler, like having
access to those statistics in your do-files, or something of that kind,
then you can use either _b[varname] and _se[varname] notation for the
point estimates and the standard errors, or e(b) and e(V) matrices that
you can also -matrix get- after the estimation.
sysuse auto
svyset [pw=trunk] , psu(rep78)
svymean leng
di _b[len]
di _se[len]
mat b = get(_b)
mat V = get(VCE)
mat li b
mat li V
BTW is there an appropriate toy data set for survey examples?
