Since this is the SPSSX-L list and/or NG, might I offer the suggestion that
if one is interested in software concerning this matter, one could also
look into the TRENDS module from SPSS. There are much more diverse
software packages offered on Time Series Analysis, but this is the one that
is offered by SPSS and it might be enough for your needs.

You haven't provided much detail, but if you're talking about
observations at regular points in time that exhibit seasonal cycles
etc., then the operative phrase is Time Series Analysis. There are
numerous books on the subject, but the small Sage Publications book is
a start. If you're looking for software, you could look at the SAS
Time Series module.
FWIW,
