Re: st: Combining graphs

[Paul <paul@iheta.com>]

Austin thank you.

I added the local `i' and tried adding kph in graph combine but the
problem is not resolved

 local i=1

. foreach v of varlist HIP1824Px HIP1836Px HIP1819Px {
  2. graph bar total_episd_amt if LOS>0 & hospital_group=="" &
separation_fy=="2010/11", ov
> er (COMPTOT, relabel(2 "Complication" 1 "NoComplication")) over(`v',
>relabel(2 "`v'"  1 "
> Other admissions")) title ("Mean episode amount overnight stays, public
>hospitals 2010/11
> ") subtitle ("`v' with/without complications") name(panel`i')
  3. local i=`i'+1
  4. }

. 
. graph combine panel1.gph panel2.gph panel3.gph,cols(1)
file panel1.gph not found

Any other suggestions?
