adowhere is a Stata command that returns the directory paths where a particular Stata command is located. It could be the case that the user has the same ado-file placed in different locations. As long as the ado-file is belongs to the paths over which stata search for ado-files, adowhere will list the corresponding directory. It is a combination between which and adopath with the additional feature of listing the directory path in the order that Stata search for them.

Just type adowhere adoname, where adoname stands for the name of the ado-file.

The idea of this ado-file was originated by Joao Pedro Azevedo, @jpazvd
