Binning Variables in SPSS

David Cobey
Dear SPSS Listserve,

   I am trying to write syntax to decile a large number of variables.
Visual binning will not work both because of a the time involved and the
need to include filters.  Is there another manner to do this?  Perhaps
by saving the deciles produced by a frequencies command?

Thank you!

David
