The ado-files for -parmest- and -eclplot- are downloadable from SSC,
using the -ssc- command in Stata. (In Stata, type
whelp ssc
to find out more about the -ssc- command.) Examples of do-files that use
-metaparm- and/or -eclplot- are distributed with my presentation at the
Stata User Meeting at Mannheim at
http://ideas.repec.org/s/boc/dsug06.html
and also on my website (see my signature below).
I hope this helps.
Best wishes
