Hi Arthur,
   I created a data set with your variable names in SPSS 17.0.1 and replicated the effects that you described for the two ctables commands. I have not found a history or bug report of this problem, but will investigate further. The error message that I received was "spss engine has encountered a problem and needs to close".
Depending on the nature of the Total variable in your file, the following syntax may give you what you want and does not crash the program.


CTABLES
  /TABLE age_bk2 [C][COUNT F40.0] BY source + source > s3
  /CATEGORIES VARIABLES=age_bk2 source TOTAL=YES POSITION=BEFORE.

Hi,


I'm having trouble understanding why this works:


ctable /table total [c] + AGE_BK2 [c] by total [c] + source [c] + source [c] .


but this crashes SPSS v17.


ctable /table total [c] + AGE_BK2 [c] by total [c] + source [c] + source [c]
> s3 [c] .




Error Report:


AppName:spssengine.exe
ModVer: 8.0.50727.1433
AppVer: 17.01.80
ModName: msvcr80.dll
Offset:00008923


Any help is appreciated.


Arthur
