In publishing our longitudinal studies, we customarily table and graph
in multiples of 30 days. In figures, for example, our major tick marks
are at multiples of 360 days. No journal has objected to this.

Hi all, similiar to the last question, I'm trying to get the results
of a outcome (in this case smoking=0 not smoking=1) 6 months from an
initial date (the patients first clinic visit). The date is coded
in the format <10sep2008> in stata. Is it possible to do this? Thank
in advance for any help.
Sure.
newdate=visitdate1+6*30
merge patid newdate using outcomes, keep(result)
Best, Sergiy
