I’m having problem with the Olap Cubes command. My syntax is OLAP CUBES Requirements Appeal BY Primary_work_recoded Tx_v_support/CELLS=COUNT MEAN STDDEV. What I’m getting back is the total sample N, mean, SD for the two DVs. I don’t know whether it matters or not but the DVs are scale level and the two IVs were initially nominal but changing them to ordinal made no difference. Several years ago I ran an Olap command that worked and this command string is structurally the same as the previous one. I must be doing something wrong but I don’t see what it is. Help please. Thanks, Gene Maguin |
Measurement level doesn't matter. OLAP
cubes are initially collapsed to the total level. If you activate the table,
you can use the drop-downs to view the various subgroups. You can also
pivot the table to expose more layers at the same time -- or you could
use the MEANS procedure.

Ooooh! I never would have guessed. Thanks. I did use means. I was looking for an output structure that required minimal editing to a set of tables. You don’t have to offer a reply to the following comment. I’m not asking for one. It seems odd to me that a procedure that seems to be about reporting DV statistics by IV categories would have a collapsed view as the default.
