Subject: not reproducable results
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
I would like to know under which conditions SPSS 6.1 (Win95) will not
produce the same results of the procedure NPAR TEST if I run the
following syntax (!) repeatedly from the first to the last statement
(this strange behavior is reproducable):
