I believe you will want to carefully study the AGGREGATE command!

Hi

I have my dataset in long form where each individual has three measure occasions and within each measure occasion there are 3-7 measure points (days). Totally there could be 9 to 21 rows (data points) for each individual. If I want to get descriptive data of number of individuals (not the number of measure points) and other information at each measure occasion, what syntax can I use? If I then want to present it by gender and by age-group, how do I do it? (At each measure occasion there are two age-groups)
