st: How do I obtain confidence intervals for percentiles with survey data ?

Hello Everyone :
When I use the command centile Stata reports de centile requested as
well as the confidence interval.
Since I have survey data, I have to use the command pctile but Stata
reports the percentile not the conffidence interval, ¿what can I do to
obtain the confidence interval?
This is the input commands I have been using :
-pctile pct = loghourlywage [pw=weight], nq(100) genp(percent)
-list percent pct in 1/100
Thanks in advance for your help.
