Some technique:
. sysuse auto, clear
(1978 Automobile Data)
. label def rep78 1 lousy 2 poor 3 mediocre 4 good 5 spectacular
. label val rep78 rep78
. levelsof rep78, local(levels)
1 2 3 4 5
. scatter mpg rep78, xla(`levels', valuelabel)
The important bit here is
levelsof ..., local(levels)
..., xla(`levels', valuelabel)

Is there a way to force the "skip factor" for x-axis labels on the rcap
graph to zero, so that every x-axis value is plotted? I have about 20
records containing high-low-close data and need every value label to be
plotted on the x-axis. (The unique x-values range from 1,2,...,20, and
the y-values reflect high-low-close.)
As a workaround to the above, I programmatically concatenated an xlabel
string but have only been successful in generating (e.g.):
1GM 2Ford 3Chrysler
when I really need:
1 "GM" 2 "Ford" 3 "Chrysler"
At run-time, the integers in my string are from `i' and the value labels
"`w'" are actually variable names defined by
local w : word `i' in `varnames'
