Hi
Jenenne,
We might
need to have a look at the data on this. I can't replicate this and suspect it
will have to do with something unusual about the data.

Hi all --
I'm trying to build a table using the Custom Tables module,
v. 17.0. I have a 5-point Likert-type item and I'm crossing it with a Pre/Post
variable. All variables are listed in the database with a nominal level of
measurement, and Pre/Post is currently entered as a string variable.
I
want a table that looks like this:
Pre Post
Count Row% Count
Row%
SA
A
N
SD
When I try to make a table using Custom
Tables, I get this:
Pre Post Pre Post
Count Row% Count Row% Count Row%
Count Row%
SA
A
N
D
SD
The first set of Pre and Post
columns have zero values all the way down. The second set of Pre and Post
columns have the real values. When I run a frequencies or cross-tabs on my
pre/post variable, there are only 2 values that come up.
Now, if I recode
Pre/Post into a Scale-level variable, change the level to nominal in the custom
tables drop-down box, and then build the table, it comes out correctly.
Can anyone explain why this might be
happening?
Thanks!
