David,
Yes, I have calculated (directly) standardised mortality and incidence
ratios using Stata for a variety of datasets. I usually write my own
do-files to do this though - maybe there are programs that do all the
hard work for me, but I like to know exactly what's going on (or wrong)
with my data.
What did you want to know? I can't find your messages on Statalist, I'm
afraid.
