test2

[Laura Gibbons]

write something

try to insert code

sysuse auto, clear
gen temp=substr(make,1,2)
* just to simplify things
keep if temp<"D"

* this works fine
gr hbar (count), over(temp)

* this is what the helpfile says to do if you want them in a different order
gen order=1 if temp=="BM"
replace order=2 if temp=="Bu"
replace order=3 if temp=="AM"
replace order=4 if temp=="Au"
replace order=5 if temp=="Ca"
replace order=6 if temp=="Ch"

gr hbar (count), over(temp, sort(order))
/*
"variable mean not found"
