Do you have a HOME directory?
AFAIK, XEmacs is going there to check for the file .emacs or for
.xemacs/init.el.
If you don't have one, I think XEmacs is checking C:\ as the default
location.
In my init.el-file I have the following lines:
(load "u:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\ess\\ess-site")
(add-path "u:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\ess\\")
(require 'ess-site)
Most likely you have to modify them according to your own settings. ;-)
You also have to modify the file ess-site.el
In my version of ESS you find the important lines you have to change at
about line 325. (If I remember correctly, the location in previous
versions of ESS was about line 250).
My line for R looks like:
(setq-default inferior-R-program-name "U:\\R\\rw2001\\bin\\Rterm.exe")
; msdos systems

Probably the wrong mailing list?
However, if you have ESS corretly configured, you can open any *.do file
and XEmacs switches to ESS[STA] mode and supports syntax highlighting
and probably a lot more (I haven't used Stata for a while now - thanks
to R).
Hope this helps.
Best,
Roland
