Why not use the WEIGHT command?

-----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:SPSSX-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU] On Behalf Of Colin Valdiserri Sent: Thursday, June 05, 2008 2:10 PM To: SPSSX-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Subject: Restructuring Households to Units

Hello again to everyone,

I would like to thank everyone for their help with my previous question regarding weighting ratio data; I received great insights and am very appreciative.

I now have another question about restructuring data. I have a data set of 598 respondents (home builders). In this data one of the questions ask how many homes they build in a year. I need to restructure the data so that it is based on of homes build in a year and not individual respondents. For example, if one respondent build 800 homes in a year, I need that respondent to be in the data 800 times.

I have heard this can be done, but have no idea where to begin and if you have the syntax or any help it would be a hugely appreciated.

Many regards,

Colin
