Hi everyone,  

        I am a student working on an assignment fon Multipel Regression and
Partial Correlations using a correlation matrix only, no data file.  

        I am running SPSS 16.  Below is my proposed syntax.  However I have
an error that I am not able to correct.  

        I have used the SPSS syntax help.  However still not working.  Can
anyone help me get unstuck?  I would greatly appreciate it. And learn
from it.   N=500  5 Variables x1,x2,x3,x4,x5

        matrix data variables= x1 x2 x3 x4 x5/
  contents= n mean stdev corr.
 begin data
 500 500 500 500 500
 0 0 0 0 0
 1 1 1 1 1
 1.00
   .35  1.00
   .40   .15  1.00    
   .52   .37    .31  1.00
   .48   .40    .50    .46 1.00
 end data.
 execute.
 regression matrix=in (*)/var=x1 to x5/stat=all/
  dep=x1/enter x2/ enter x3/.
  PARTIAL
   GET matrix=in (*)/.
  VARIABLES= CORR x1 with x3 by x2/stat=all.
 regression matrix=in (*)/var=x1 to x5/stat=all/
  dep=x1/enter x2 x3 /enter x4/.
  PARTIAL
   GET matrix=in (*)/.
  VARIABLES= CORR x1 with x4 by x2 x3/stat=all.

The procedure name is PARTIAL CORR.
Place your cursor on that command and use the f1 key.
It looks as if you just had a glitch in your editing.  I don't know
where the "GET" came from.
