Sorry Maarten I only got one reply from you and no link to the article was present. Thanks for including it here though.

Unfortunately I can't use over with -stripplot- since I can't combine
()over with more than one variable and I have three that I wanted to compare side by side for each value of the X- axis categorical
variable. by() won't work either for that matter since what I want is

basically X over many Y as follows with a crude representation of my
boxplot:

| - - - -
| +-+ - +-+ +-+ - +-+
| |-| +-+ |-| |-| +-+ |-|

I don't have access to the article Maarten referenced.
I answered twice and you do have access to the article referenced in
the first answer (as I gave you a link). This article will give you all
the elements you need to solve your problem. Here is an example:

*-------------- begin example -----------------------
sysuse auto, clear

parmby "mean trunk mpg turn", by(foreign) norestore
gen x = _n

scatter estimate x || /*
*/ rcap min95 max95 x, /*
*/ xlab(1 "trunk" /*
*/ 2 `""mpg" "Domestic""' /*
*/ 3 "turn" /*
*/ 4 "trunk" /*
*/ 5 `""mpg" "Foreign""' /*
*/ 6 "turn") /*
*/ legend(order(1 "mean" 2 "95% CI")) /*
*/ xtitle("")
*------------------ end example -------------------------
(For more on how to use examples I sent to the Statalist, see
http://home.fsw.vu.nl/m.buis/stata/exampleFAQ.html )

Hope this helps,
Maarten
