Jens,

This is actually a good solution; I had forgot that the value labels would appear on the graph. In some ways, this provides the general solution.

Thanks, jamie

Good point by Jamie Hockin. We should incorporate into histogram (and epicurve) the ability to define length of interval. Until this is done users can work like this (in the test version)

• generate the grouped variable: (age into five year groups)

gen i ag = age div 5 labelvalue ag /3="<20" /4="20-24" /5="25-29" /etc ....... (3 because in this example 16 was the minimum age) histogram ag /xa // which will work as desired
