If you really really really need class programming (and
as you can see from the impressive list of user written
twoway commands by Nick, it is very likely that you do
not), than can come to the UK Stata Users Group meeting
on 10 and 11 September, and ask your question directly
to Vince.
But seriously, if it can't wait, or London is too far
away for you, than you should give more information
about what you want to do, and maybe someone on the
list can help you.
