Thank you to all-
My error in posting....I am using Stata 11.

I have also tried what Michael Lichter suggested with similar results
using this command:

margins i.x , subpop(if subpopnodm==1) vce(unconditional)

The small section on margins in the svy estimation does not provide much
additional help.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
