Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I am trying to run a chi square test for trend in SPSS 11.5 and am not sure
how to do this. For example, I would like to compare the proportion of
people who died in each of 3 categories of an ordinal variable called blood
pressure which is coded 0 for normal blood pressure, 1 for high blood
pressure, and 2 for very high blood pressure. Can someone please explain how
to run this test? Thank you.
