GPL in SPSS 14.0.0

Mark Webb-3
I'm currently working thru the GPL Reference Guide for V14.PDF.
I'm running the examples given - the first 5 examples work [to simple bar with bar for all].
The next few - starting with stacked bar.... give the error message in red - The requested chart cannot be drawn.......

Any comments ? Is my version to low ? Anyone had this problem & solved it ?

Regards
Mark

Hi Mark

I found that same error message in SPSS 15 several times. I finally
located two different causes:

1) The use of a wrong format for a variable (the variable measure was
nominal while the chart needed a scale measured one and vice versa)
2) The use of an older SPSS version template with the graph

Since example #6 doesn't use a chart template, I'd check the measure
of the involved variables: jobcat and gender, and modify them (from
scale to nominal or vice versa) and see what happens.

HTH,
Marta
