There is no concrete code to comment on here. 
I did this: 
. sysuse auto, clear 
(1978 Automobile Data)
. collapse mpg, by(rep78) 
. l
     +-----------------+
     | rep78       mpg |
     |-----------------|
  1. |     1        21 |
  2. |     2    19.125 |
  3. |     3   19.4333 |
  4. |     4   21.6667 |
  5. |     5   27.3636 |
     |-----------------|
  6. |     .      21.4 |
     +-----------------+
. twoway bar mpg rep78, yaxis(1 2) yla(18(2)28, axis(2)) 
|| line mpg rep78, yla(20 30, axis(1))
and the line plot is on top of the bar plot, and I have 
two separate axes. Does that help?
