Hello,
My objective is to save the ado files that I create and the ones that I
retrieve from ssc in the same main directory (D:\Stata). This will make it
easier when I make back ups of data.
I am trying to understand how the paths shown below are used by Stata. I
noticed that "c:\ado\plus/" stores ado files that are retrieved from ssc.
Can I change this path to D:\Stata\ado\plus? How would I do it?
Also, should I change the other ado paths that appear in the list above, if
I want all "my stuff" in D:\Stata?
What about the other paths? What are Personal and Old Place used for?

[2] (BASE) "C:\Program Files\Stata9\ado\base/"
[3] (SITE) "C:\Program Files\Stata9\ado\site/"
[4] "."
[5] (PERSONAL) "c:\ado\personal/"
[6] (PLUS) "c:\ado\plus/"
[7] (OLDPLACE) "c:\ado/"
[8] "D:\STATA\Adofiles"
Any reference or explanation about this would be greatly appreciated.
Claude
