Re: How to make tables for submission to journals

For the half dozen or so tables that I put into a journal submission,
I've generally found it easier to just export the SPSS output to
Excel, and edit and format the tables there.  SPSS tables usually
have more information in them than journals would like to report, and
Excel allows for conditional formatting to underline or boldface
significant p-values.

cheers,
