Ashwin:
Roger Newson had an article on making those kind of graphs in the Stata Journal in 2003. You can find a pre-publication draft of the article at his website: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/nhli/r.newson/papers.htm .
Newson R. Confidence intervals and p-values for delivery to the end user. The Stata Journal 2003; 3(3): 245-269.
HTH,

BTW: you can upgrade free of charge to Stata 8.2, just type -update query-.

Subject: st: Graph help needed - superimposing two series within the same graph in Stata 8.0
I have two outcomes - outcome1 and outcome2. I have
the same three categories for each outcome - low,
middle and high. Each category has an odds ratio and a
95% confidence interval.
I would like to creat a graph with the category (low,
mid, high) on the X-axis and the odds ratio on the
Y-axis - the odds ratio being represented by a small
box/symbol in the center with the 95% CI as a vertical
line (similar to a box and whiskers plot - only
without the 25th and 75th percentile shoulders).
