I will be grateful if anybody can make me wise on how to calculate intraclass correlation for a binary outcome (random effects) in SPSS. I need this for a cluster randomized trial with 8 clusters in each of the two arms and each cluster with nearly 300 subjects. The outcome is a disease no or yes coded as 0 or 1. I want a solution in SPSS only (not R or any other package).

Thanks.

I suggest you post your question to the SPSSX-L forum:
I am fairly certain there is no built in procedure for what you want, and I've not heard of any user-written macros either.  So it will likely require estimating a model (probably using GENLINMIXED), and "rolling your own" using various bits of the model output. 

Finally, I see that there are at least 5 versions of the ICC for the situation you describe.  If you post to SPSSX-L, it would help to clarify which one(s) you want. 

HTH.

I'll agree with Bruce and add that there are reasonably straightforward formulae for ICC for GLMMs (including binomial) in these papers:
