Recoding a variable into deciles

[Jeff Stuewig]

        Is there a quick way to recode a variable into deciles?  It seems
like a remember there is a function for this but I can't remember it.
Thanks.

Try this:

If assigning 1 to lowest values:

RANK
 VARIABLES=VAR1 (A) /RANK /NTILES (10) /PRINT=YES
 /TIES=MEAN.


If assigning 1 to highest values:

RANK
 VARIABLES=VAR1 (A) /RANK /NTILES (10) /PRINT=YES
 /TIES=MEAN.
