I am trying to use /PTOTAL /FTOTAL in a TABLES command and have different
STATISTICS appear in each, i.e.: PTOTAL (in a row) to only show "count" and
"cpct" but FTOTAL (in a row) only show "mean" "semean" and "stdev". When I
use the syntax as shown below:
/STATISTICS count cpct(PT1)

mean semean stddev( FT1)

the PTOTAL row includes the mean and semean after the count and cpct and the
FTOTAL row shows the count, mean, semean and stdev. Is there any way I can
get the TABLES command to only show what I want "tell" it to show in the
STATISTICS?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,
the problem is that if you don't specify after the statistic function name
the variable name (in your case the total dummy variable name)
to which the statistic should be applied, that statistic is applied to
every row variable in your table.
So, the change of your /statistics subcommand with the following,
could solve your problem:

/STATISTICS=count(PT1) cpct(PT1)
mean(FT1) semean(FT1) stddev( FT1)
