Of course you can:

*************
use http://www.stata-press.com/data/r11/nlswork.dta, clear
graph bar (mean) age, over(year)
*************

You can also -preserve-/-restore- your way around the destruction of your
data...

Thank you for this working solution. However, a method that does not
clear/replace my current dataset would be more practical. I really feel like
this is a simple 'problem' and hope there is another easy command?

-collapse- first; then it's -twoway line-.

I have a very simple problem: I have a panel dataset and would like to
easily get an overview graph that plots the mean of all observations as
a function of year and connects them with a line. Basically I want to
plot the results from:

table year, contents (mean VARIABLE)

The 'mband' command is the closest I found, but this command uses the
median and not the mean.
