I've stset my data and I'm able to run cox models, no problem. The
question is how do I obtain HRs for an outcome variable with three
levels, e.g. var_1_2 coded 0, 1, 2 in the same model, and obtain
separate estimates for 0 vs. 1 and 0 vs. 2. Right now I'm able to do
this using stcoxkm, by(var_1_2), then type stcox. But Stata does not
allow me to run an adjusted model in this way. Is there another way to
fit a single model for a categorical variable with more than 2 levels
for both univariate and multivariate cox regression?

Maarten answered this by explaining how to include independent
variables with several levels. But I think the question is about
multiple possible outcomes. Is this a competing risk question? Try:
findit competing risk
and locate -stcompet-. It may be what you need.
Hope this helps
