I can't speak for STATA. In Stata you
can superimpose histograms using e.g.
twoway histogram ... || histogram ...
although the result is often a mess.
A -dotplot-, a oneway plot, a quantile plot,
etc. can often be much more effective.
A rather long-winded but nevertheless heartfelt
discussion appeared in
Graphing distributions. Stata Journal 4(1): 66--88
(2004)
a review of official and user-written commands for
graphing univariate distributions; includes tricks
beyond what is obviously and readily available
