As said, if it's not a problem with variables being (mis)read as string, then it sounds like a problem with missings. Have a look at your data e.g. using -codebook- and opening the Data Editor and see whether and where there are missings and whether they match what is seen by SPSS.

However, this has not eliminated my original error message pointing to there be "no observations" for my "statistical calculation". == * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
