Yes, the example with CI plots works if converted to Stata 11.2, or even
to Stata 11.0 (the version in which factor varlists were introduced).
With Stata 10 or below, you have to use -xi:- and -factext-.

Dear Roger,
Does the example with CI plots paste easily into Stata 11.2?

Dear Roger
Many, many thanks for your support! Your code works like a charm, and
is exactly what I needed.
There have been some earlier queries regarding the
ttest-parmby-metaparm task and I think you provided us with a perfect
solution.
I can now Eclplot all my test results with p-values as labels, great!
Again, thank you for your help!
Best wishes
David

PS a version of David's -auto- program which also produces CI plots for the
differences between US and non-US cars is as follows:
**** BEGINNING OF EXAMPLE - CUT HERE
#delim ;
version 12.0;
sysuse auto, clear;
global tflist "";
global modseq=0;
tempfile temp1;
descsave foreign, do(`"`temp1'"', replace);
foreach X of var weight length {;
local Xlab: var lab `X';
global modseq=$modseq+1;
tempfile tf$modseq;
ttest `X', by(foreign);
parmby "regress `X' ibn.foreign, noconst",
format(estimate min* max* %8.2f p %-8.2g) idstr("`Xlab'")
saving(`"`tf$modseq'"',replace) flist(tflist);
};
clear;
append using $tflist;
sencode idstr, gene(outcome);
lab var outcome "Outcome";
fvregen, do(`"`temp1'"');
drop idstr;
keyby outcome foreign;
desc;
list, abbr(32) noobs sepby(outcome);
metaparm [iwei=!foreign-foreign], dfcombine(constant) by(outcome) norestore;
list, abbr(32) sepby(outcome);
eclplot estimate min* max* outcome, hori
estopts(msize(4)) ciopts(msize(5))
yscale(range(0 3)) ylab(1 2) xline(0) xtitle("Difference (95% CI)");

Dear all
I need to collect the results of a series of ttests (equal variances),
store them in a file together with their p-values. In a second step, I
want to plot the means of the variables with CI's using ECLplot. I'm
using Roger Newson's parmby, factext and metaparm commands. This is my
code. I cannot manage to get factext working it seems, but I do not
figure out where my mistake is. As is obvious, I'm not very
experienced in programming Stata. (I use Stata 12 if this is
relevant).
global tflist ""
global modseq=0
foreach X of var sem_a sem_b {
global modseq=$modseq+1
tempfile tf$modseq temp1
descsave, do(`temp1', replace)
ttest `X', by(case)
parmby "xi, noomit: regress `X' i.case, noconst", label
format(estimate min* max* %8.2f p %-8.2g) idn($modseq)
saving(`tf$modseq',replace) flist(tflist)
factext, do(`temp1')
metaparm [iwei=!case-case], dfcombine(constant)
saving(`tf$modseq',replace)
}
dsconcat $tflist
The same, adapted to the auto data for easier inspection:
sysuse auto, clear
global tflist ""
global modseq=0
foreach X of var weight length {
global modseq=$modseq+1
tempfile tf$modseq temp1
descsave, do(`temp1', replace)
ttest `X', by(foreign)
parmby "xi, noomit: regress `X' i.foreign, noconst", label
format(estimate min* max* %8.2f p %-8.2g) idn($modseq)
saving(`tf$modseq',replace) flist(tflist)
factext, do(`temp1')
metaparm [iwei=!foreign-foreign], dfcombine(constant)
saving(`tf$modseq',replace)
}
dsconcat $tflist
Any help is greatly appreciated - I have spent hours finding my mistake
now...
Many thanks in advance!!
David
