There is no censoring feature in CTABLES, but there is an extension command, SPSSINC CENSOR TABLE that can do things like this. You can get it from SPSS Developer Central, www.devcentral.com. It requires at least version 17 and the Python plug-in, but no Python knowledge is required to use it.

Hello all,

I have a syntax writing question. At the moment I have this syntax:

/VLABELS VARIABLES=Action Issue DISPLAY labels /TABLES Action [C] BY Issue [C] [COUNT F40.0] /CATEGORIES VARIABLES = Actions [1,2,3,4,5,6,7, OTHERNM] EMPTY=INCLUDE TOTAL=YES POSITION=AFTER /CATEGORIES VARIABLES = Issue ORDER = A KEY = VALUE EMPTY = INCLUDE

What I would like to do is write another command that looks at the total counts of "issues" and if the total count is less then 3 does NOT display that particular issue. Is there a way to do that?
