There may be an official Stata solution, but what
I would recommend is that you try -catplot- from SSC.
-catplot- appeared early in the life of Stata 8 given
the discovery that -graph bar- is not that good at
counting.
. catplot bar rep78 foreign, blabel(bar, position(outside))
Is that what you want?
