Emma, you possibly want to remove empty categories from table outputs?

CTABLES offers the possibility to exclude them via subcommand

/CATEGORIES VARIABLES= varlist  EMPTY = EXCLUDE

Not quite sure what you want, or why you would want to do it, but:

 

1:  open the data editor

2:  click on the column header for VALUES to highlight the whole column

3:  CTRL+H                         (Find and replace)

4:  Fill in dialog boxes with:

 

Find                      no answer

Replace with      <leave box empty>

Replace all.        

 

Try it with a copy first!

Hi,

just a little question regarding value labels.

Is it possbible to delete  a specific value label from a lot of variables according to the text/label ? For example delete all value labels with 'no answer' in it?

 

Thank you!
