Hi

another variation on this is if you want multi-dimensional crosstabs ie demographic by variable 1 by variable 2 ........ to variable n then run the OLAP cubes procedure.

Hi Janet!

If I understood your problem, this syntax should solve it. If you do not have all 'n' variables in a sequence in your data set, you should replace 'var_1 to var_n ' by the list of all variables names. 'demgroup' is supposed to be the categorical variables that has the seven demographic characteristics.

CROSSTABS /TABLES= var_1 to var_n BY demgroup /FORMAT= AVALUE TABLES /CELLS= COUNT ROW COLUMN .

Hope it helps,

Marcos

Ok. There's got to be a simple solution, but I can't find it. I want to generate crosstabs to look at a series of variables according to 7 demographic characteristics. I want the output ordered by variable; that is to say, variable 1 by all 7 demographic groups, followed variable 2 by all 7 demographic groups, and so on.

I've found loop and repeat commands that sound like the right general sorts of things, but they don't seem to do what I'm after. Can anyone put me on the right path, or provide syntax for this? (I'm using version 11.0.3 in windows)

Many thanks.
