Tabulate frequencies of ID values with a Universe of cases
Posted: February 1st, 2023, 10:19 am
Hi folks,
In the DataViewer, if you apply a universe using variables of a specific record, say, age = 0, and you want to know which cases have these persons, the program issues an invalid subscript message.
I understand that the id variables "belong" to all the records in the file, and, as such, should be able to have their frequencies taken.
Another minor issue: is that possible to execute the frequencies only to the cases listed (selected)? That is, if you type a key prefix to select some cases, I would like to apply the frequencies only to those cases. Now, as it is, in order to do that, I have to type the universe selecting all the variables in the ID, which might mean a lot of them, for instance: department, county, province, area, block, census tract, etc
