Re: st: Svyset Question

[Suzy <scott_788@wowway.com>]

the svy commands have slightly changed from Stata 8 to Stata 9. The 
correct commands can be obtained by either typing "help svy" in the 
command window, using the drop down statistics window and looking under 
survey data analysis, or looking on the Stata website for the new 
changes. Here is an example of the new command:

svy, subpop(if fhdm==1) vce(linearized): mean age bmxbmi, over(sex2)
(running mean on estimation sample)

Survey: Mean estimation

Number of strata =      28          Number of obs    =   xxxxx
Number of PSUs   =      57          Population size  = 2.6e+08
                                   Subpop. no. obs  =    xxxx
                                   Subpop. size     = 9.3e+07
                                   Design df        =      29

           0: sex2 = 0
           1: sex2 = 1
