Thanks to Kit Baum, there is now a new version of the -eclplot- package
available for download from SSC. In Stata, use the -ssc- command to find
out more and to download the new version.
The -eclplot- package is described as below on my website. The new version
fixes a bug in the dialog, which was causing the dialog to fail under the
latest versions of Stata 8. The dialog now works (at least for me - let me
know if it doesn't for anybody else). I would like to thank Jean Marie
Linhart and James Hassell of StataCorp for their help in fixing this bug,
and for all their helpful advice about dialogs.
Best wishes
Roger

package eclplot from http://www.kcl-phs.org.uk/rogernewson/stata8

TITLE
eclplot: Horizontal and vertical confidence interval plots
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
eclplot creates a plot of estimates with lower and upper confidence
limits
on one axis against another numeric variable on the other axis. The
estimates
and lower and upper confidence limits are stored in three variables,
in a
data set with one observation per confidence interval to be plotted.
Data
sets with such variables may be created manually (using a spreadsheet),
or using the parmest package, or using statsby or postfile in
official Stata.
The user has a choice of plotting the confidence intervals
horizontally or
vertically, a choice of plot styles for the estimates, and a choice
of range
plot styles for the confidence intervals. It is also possible to overlay
the confidence interval plot with other plots using the plot option.
eclplot may be used either as a command or through a dialog.
