The original post, which did not appear in my email, seems to be this.

Warnings

There are no valid cases for models with dependent variable alldays.
Statistics cannot be computed.

No valid cases found. Equation-building skipped.

I checked the data and it seems all right. I also ran descriptives and
the results come out right. Anybody also had such problem before? Any
suggestions to fix the problem? Thank you!

-----------

This probably means that there was enough missing data to knock out  all the cases.

A  case would be excluded if any of the variables in the regression has a missing value.

This has nothing to do with "calculating the mean and total for the variables" except that that calculation

from REGRESION would give you the same error message.

Although this reply is slightly late, it may help others that are also facing
the same issue now.

If you are doing a multiple regression, with multiple variables, you may
have made a rooky erorr of not first calculating the mean and total for the
varibles.

You do this by ,

going to transform, then compute variable, then for the label type
meaninsertvariablename then in the box put MEAN (Q___ to Q___) this will
then create a coloum for this.

to get the total again , transform, compute variable, then label total.....
then in the box put (Q___ +Q____... etc)  this will create a total.

then to calcualte the multiple reggresion , go to analyse, regression,
linear.
in the dv  enter the mean dv variable you are mesuring e.g. meanHappiness
in the Iv enter the other variables e.g. meanaggression, meanenvironment
etc.

you can then tap the stat's box and select the correct measures you want ,
e.g. part and partial correlantions, estimates, model fit, colineraity.

then press continue then ok

this will then output your results, i hope this helps anyone who comes
across this issue.
