Seems to me this is a course assignment: should we be helping at all? I
wonder where they are based and who the tutor is who expects SPSS newbies to
tackle such a problem?

Gaurav,
Did you see my reply to Joan on this same topic? It seems to me that my
reply to her applies to your question also. If you think it does not, then
reply to the list telling us how your situation is different. If you've
applied the syntax I wrote for her to your problem and had problems then
post your exact syntax and the exact error message text.

Subject: Need Help - SPSS (Quota Balance)
Hi Gene Maguin,
I got your mail ID from SPSSX forum. I am a new user for SPSS and stuck with
my one query. I tried to get some clue but couldn't. Can you please help me
on this. This is bit urgent to me.
I have multiple variables over which I have to select my total sample. In
other word, you can say best quota fit from the total sample. for example: I
have total sample of 1100 out which I have to select 1000 sample based on 3
different variable quota Age, Gender, Region.
Gender: 50%:50%
Age: 25%:30%:30%:15%
Region: 34%:33%:33%
But I am not getting how to make it work for 3 variable simultaneously. Can
you please help me on this
Do let me know if you have any query.
Regards,
Gaurav
