Maarten's example doesn't show variable labels. Here is one way to do
it. I may well be overlooking an option in -parmest-.
Nick
sysuse nlsw88, clear
logit union married never_married collgrad south
local i = 0
foreach v in married never_married collgrad south {
local l`v' : variable label `v'
}
parmest, norestore eform
foreach v in married never_married collgrad south {
replace parm = "`l`v''" if parm == "`v'"
}
replace parm = "(intercept)" if parm == "_cons"
egen axis= axis(estimate), label(parm)
twoway bar estimate axis, base(1) horizontal barw(.5) ///
xline(1) ylab(, valuelabel ang(h) noticks) || ///
rcap min95 max95 axis, horizontal ///
legend(order(1 "point estimate" ///
2 "95% conf. int.") pos(6)) ///
xtitle("odds ratio") ytitle("")
