st: have string macro default in syntax

Hello all,
I looked through the documentation for syntax. I don't think stata can do this but I would like to post anyway...
here is my adofile
/*begin hh.ado*/
program hh
syntax, stat(str)
.......
graph pie varname, by(varname) plabel(_all `stat')
end
hh, stat(sum) will give me sum
hh, stat(percent) will give me percent
I would like to( if possible) have hh draw a pie chart with "percent" as default and draw "sum" if included in the arguments. Something like this....
hh //give me percent by default
hh, stat(sum) //give me sum
Can stata do this?? Any help will be appreciated//
Thanks,
Tashi
