Sorry, this should have been:
recode string.sex ('M'=1) ('F'=2) (ELSE=SYSMIS) into numeric.sex.

if( string.sex = 'F' ) numeric.sex = 2.
execute.

A histogram groups numbers into ranges - you can't "group strings into ranges",
because a string does not contain quantative information.
Slightly more formally, a histogram is an approximation to a probability
