st: RE: looping twoway graph

["David Radwin" <dradwin@mprinc.com>]

It's difficult to answer this question definitively given the limited
amount of information you gave (such as the values for cbm). But to start
with, the first line

  keep ecowas==1

should be

  keep if ecowas==1

This should drop the other 55 countries. Test it by using -count- before
and after, like:


. clear

. set obs 68
obs was 0, now 68

. gen ecowas=cond(_n<14, 1, 0)

. count
   68

. keep if ecowas==1
(55 observations deleted)

. count
   13
