Does anyone know if you can perform stepwise entry discriminant function
analysis in SPSS 15.0  and some advice on writing syntax to do so?

in spss
click <help>
click <topics>
click <search>
type "inclusion levels" in the edit box

However, as in regression using a hierarchical (stepped) series of
models is legit, stepwise is almost always inadvisable.
