Re: Change nominal to scale

[Norton, John]

This is easily done using the VARIABLE LEVEL command, thus:

VARIABLE LEVEL var1 var2 (scale).

If your variables are contiguous, you can also use the TO clause, thus

VARIABLE LEVEL x1 TO x20 (scale).

Can anyone help me with the syntax to change the measure of a group of
variables from nominal to scale?
