Brilliant! But it doesn't wok. On my datafiles, I get a long list of errors like: "V1 and V8 are not of the same type. All variables in this variable list must be of the same type. V8 will be omitted from the list." (where, indeed, V1 and V8 are string variables of different lengths). Finally, it complains that SYSMIS isn't a string and fails to execute the COUNT: "error: COUNT: Syntax error at `missing': expecting string." This happens whether I use MISSING or SYSMIS. I thought that the above was a bug, and maybe it is, because I should be able to use SYSMIS/MISSING but it works fine when I specify the columns to use, so I think it only fails when I specify ALL as the columns. BTW, it would be neat if this worked in PSPP, but SPSS refuses to accept ALL as a column range. -Alan -- Alan D.
