The simplest and automatic way is to use the SPSSINC MODIFY TABLES module
from the Developer site. MODIFY TABLES requires that the Python extensions be installed but doesn't require any knowledge of python. If you have an occasional table, activate the table and hide that category. Search the archives for more info on MODIFY TABLES. -----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of J McClure Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2010 3:03 PM To: [hidden email] Subject: suppress cumulative percent in freq table Is there a simple way to do this?

No. You have to open a pivot table by double-clicking the output and then delete the column, or copy it to Word and then delete it. Sometimes you have to drag the right hand edge away as well to get the variables on a single line. It's pain in the backside as someone just said about OLAP cubes, whatever they are. I've frequently asked for the FREQUENCIES command to be enhanced by adding keywords for count, percent, valid and cumul, à la CROSSTABS eg: freq <varlist> /cel cou val . . . . but no-one's listening, or else they send complex macro or Python solutions.

Yes, but I'm still updating my tutorials from 1992
and that means learning even more complex syntax. Absolute beginners won't
go for it, but they might once they're reasonably fluent in the basic
stuff. I still think
freq <varlist> /cel
<content list> .
would be more intuitive and easier to
understand.
