Kirill, I was just about to ask you if you had a particular macro you would recommend, but after a google search I see that you have one. ...just downloaded it and your description of the procedure in the accompanying word document looks relatively simple to follow (although I don't think I would want to try to understand what that macro syntax is going exactly).
It's not directly related to my original question, but I'll definitely have a look at the macro and hot-deck more specifically since I've never actually used it myself. It appears to be a much easier way of handing missing data than MI and can be used easily with any type of analysis. Given that the type of data I generally use is subject to a great deal of measurement error, I'm assuming that HD will be more than adequate for the majority of my uses and that MI might be unnecessary overkill.
Thanks
Jeff

Jeff, although this thread is not discussing hot-deck imputation, I want to remind to you that option too.
Hot-deck method is not unpopular in social sciences, especially in surveys.
SPSS does not have in-build command for hot-deck, but there exist macros.
