It is unclear what the precise problem is. This kind of question is
usually best sorted out directly with Stata tech support. On the face of
it you need an -update- to Stata at server level which can only be
undertaken by those with the requisite permissions, who are most
unlikely to be undergraduate users.
By the way, you replied to a entire daily digest without deleting it....

my students are using stata 10.0; we are launching stata through the
university server. unfortunately, many of the students are having
trouble using the histogram command through the graphics pull down
menu; it works fine on my desktop with a hard version of stata
installed.
They continue to get an awkward result....the instruction I founf for
this sort of issue were "update swap" but when I have them try this,
the result is that the program fails to engage because it is being
used by another user. I shut down the system and started over to no
avail.
it's very frustrating to me and the students and i really wish I could
help them. any suggestions?
