This is a little vague, and I have high probability
of answering a question different from what you have in mind.
I infer data like this:
id service date
== ======= =====
Arup data analysis 8 Dec
Arup debugging 9 Dec
Bill debugging 1 Dec
Bill debugging 8 Dec
Bill graphics 25 Dec
How many distinct people wanted each service?
egen tag = tag(id service)
egen people = total(tag), by(service)
etc.
There is a paper coming out on counting groups, especially panels, in
Stata Journal 7(4) 2007.
