Monika:
You can generate a variable containing the survivor function using -sts gen- and than use -twoway- to create graphs that superimpose the survivor function on some other graph, see the (nonsensical) example below:
*---------begin example---------
sysuse cancer, clear
stset studytime, failure(died)
sts gen survivor = s
twoway scatter age _t || line survivor _t, c(J) sort yaxis(2) clstyle(p1)
*--------end example-------------

Sorry maybe my problem description was a little bit too sketchy. I don't want to stratify the data. I have graphs with different stset variables and failure variables which I'd like to sort of superimpose in one single graph. Or even combine lets say a histogram with a survival curve if that is possible at all. I hope I didnt make it more confusing. Thanks a lot.

Monika:
I am assuming you want to show the survival curves of different groups in the same graph, is that correct? In that case you can use the by-option of the -sts graph- command, see example below:
*------begin example-----
sysuse cancer, clear
stset studytime, failure(died)
sts graph, by(drug)
*-------end example------

Subject: st: combining graphs
Hello everyone,
I'd like to combine survival curves of different graphs in a single graph. With the "graph combine" command I just get a graph with subgraphs. Does anyone know if this is possible at all and if you can even combine graphs of different types? Thanks a lot for helping a STATA greenhorn using STATA 8.2.
